Welcome to FEMAG Tools's documentation!
=======================================

   .. image:: img/femagtools.png


Femagtools is an Open-Source Python-API for FEMAG offering following features:

* run Femag with a FSL file anywhere:
  locally (single and multi-core), remote (ZMQ), HT Condor, Cloud (Amazon AWS, Google Cloud)
* read BCH/BATCH, I7/ISA7, NC, PLT, ERG files
* read and write MCV files (magnetizing curves)
* create FSL files from model and calculation templates and/or user specific FSL or from DXF
* create and analyse symmetrical windings
* create a machine and winding layout from basic requirements
* identify the model parameters of equivalent circuit
* calculate machine characteristics and efficiency maps by using analytic machine models
* create a variety of plots
* execute parameter studies and multi-objective optimization

A couple of jupyter notebooks and example scripts can be found in the source directory
hosted on github: <https://github.com/SEMAFORInformatik/femagtools/>`.

Contributions and feedback are highly welcome.

Installation
------------

Femagtools can be installed on any 3.x Python distribution with Numpy, Scipy and Pip::

  $ pip install femagtools

Prerequisite: a fairly recent FEMAG version
(see http://www.profemag.ch) must be found in one of the
directories listed in your PATH variable.

If a proxy is needed::

  $ pip --proxy http://proxy.hell:3128 install femagtools

For further information: <https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/configuration>_.

Console Scripts
---------------

The following scripts can be executed from console:

* femagtools-plot: create plots from BCH/BATCH file
* femagtools-convert: various mesh format conversion
* femagtools-bchxml: convert BCH/BATCH file into XML
* femagtools-dxfsl: convert DXF into FSL
