The MANATEE files are organized in the following architecture :

MANATEE sofware files organization

• Acoustics contains all the scripts of the acoustic models
• Doc contains the MANATEE documentation
• Economics contains all the scripts to estimate the machine cost
• Electrical contains all the scripts on the electrical models, which are split into :
  • Asynchronous: equivalent circuits and scripts for asynchronous machines
  • Synchronous: equivalent circuits and scripts for synchronous machines
  • Losses: magnetic and eddy current loss models
  • PWM: Pulse Width Modulation generation models
• Electromagnetics contains all the scripts on the electromagnetic models, which are split into :
  • BH: modelling of the magnetic materials
  • Femm: automated coupling scripts with FEMM
  • SDM: subdomain models
  • WFM: winding function and permeance/mmf models
• Geometry contains all the script for the building of the machine geometry
• GUI contains all the GUI scripts:
  • gui_BH_curve: GUI for the B(H) analytical model)
  • MANATEE_GUI.exe: Project and machine setup GUI
  • multisim_viewer: 5D visualization tool
• IOFunctions contains auxiliary I/O scripts (loading data, saving data, etc) and the excel export template
• MachineData is the database of electrical machines input data (geometry, winding, mechanical and thermal properties), it is split into :
  • Demo which contains the tutorial machines
  • MyMachines which contains the user-defined machine input data
  • Validation which contains the machine data files used for MANATEE validation cases (not available in the Trial version)
• Main contains the main scripts running the software, in particular the run_MANATEE script
• MaterialData contains BH curves magnetic material data and the material library
• Mechanics contains all the scripts of the structural mechanics models
• Optimization contains all the scripts of the Optimization module and template for your optimization projects.
• Plot contains all the plotting scripts, and more especially the ones available directly in the command line once a simulation is completed, in Plot/Commands
• PostProcessing User-defined post processing
• Projects contains all the scripts setting up the models and simulation parameters, split into
  • Demo which contains the tutorial projects
  • MyProjects which contains user-defined simulation input data
  • Validation which contains the simulation projects used for MANATEE validations (not available in the Trial)
• Results is the folder where simulation output data can be stored
• Tools contains auxiliary scripts
