CST STUDIO SUITEELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDSIMULATION SOFTWARE
WHY SIMULATE?Electromagnetic (EM) components are crucial to the successof an ever-increasing range of products. Not only are longestablished industries such as automotive and communicationsbeing disrupted by new electrical and electronic devices,advances in technology are opening entirely new marketsin fields such as medical equipment, renewable energy andmetamaterials. Keeping up with these advances requires bothvisionary designs and rapid, flexible development cycles.Simulation allows engineers to experiment with virtualprototypes even at the earliest stages of the design process,to compare the performance of different configurations,and to optimize their products. Simulation can reduce thenumber of physical prototypes required and shorten thedevelopment process, cutting both costs and time-to-market.Products can be simulated as part of a realistic system toanalyze their installed performance and verify they meet legalelectromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and exposure limits,potentially avoiding time-consuming redesigns or costly andembarrassing recalls.KEY BENEFITSElectromagnetic simulation From statics to high frequency S pecialized solvers for applications such as motors,circuit boards, cable harnesses and filters C oupled simulation: System-level,multiphysics, EM/circuit co-simulationhybrid,Modeling All-in-one fully parametric design environment Import/export wide variety of CAD and EDA files Wide range of complex material modelsAnalysis Powerful post-processing and visualization tools Built-in optimizersElectromagnetics is just one field of physics, but one thatoverlaps with many others. Motors for instance use magnetsand electrical coils to produce motion, while a microwave ovenuses high-frequency EM fields to heat up food. EM simulationis one tool in a set of simulation technologies that can be usedtogether for a fuller multiphysics simulation workflow.High-Performance ComputingCST Studio Suite Setup a collaborative space, add people andeveryone works on the same set of data; it’ssynchronized and version controlled as you workCST Studio Suite is a best-in-class software package for EMand multiphysics simulation used in leading technologyand engineering companies around the world. With solversthat span the frequency spectrum, CST Studio Suiteoffers a wide range of tools for designing, analyzing andoptimizing products. The new Electromagnetics Analystrole, available in 3DEXPERIENCE R2018x, allows CSTStudio Suite to be integrated into collaborative workflowson the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

DESIGN ENVIRONMENTModelingCST Studio Suite offers a powerful and fully parametric CADinterface for constructing and editing simulation models.Import and export tools mean that models can imported froma wide range of CAD and electronic design automation (EDA)software. The fully parametric two-way link to SOLIDWORKSmeans that design changes made in CST Studio Suite can beimported directly back into the SOLIDWORKS project, andvice versa.MaterialsThere are many application areas, such as magnetics,photonics and biological physics, where the characteristicelectromagnetic effects come about as a result of complexnon-linear material properties. CST Studio Suite includesnumerous material models to allow a vast array of phenomenato be simulated, including plasmonic and photonic effects,ferromagnetism, secondary electron emission and biologicalheating.Body modelsThe interaction of EM fields in the human body is a crucialdesign consideration for many devices, and informs bothproduct performance and safety – especially in healthcare andlife sciences. CST Studio Suite includes both voxel-based andCAD-based body models with detailed internal structure andrealistic EM and thermal properties, allowing the human bodyto be taken into consideration.MeshingAccurate meshing is an essential part of the simulationprocess. CST Studio Suite provides fast, automatic meshing,with mesh refinement and automatic adaptation to increasethe quality of the mesh in critical parts of the model. Theproprietary Perfect Boundary Approximation (PBA) usedby CST Studio Suite retains the speed advantages associatedwith a conventional staircase mesh, even for models withbillions of mesh cells, but allows curved structures andcomplex CAD data to be modeled accurately.SynthesisCST Studio Suite offers a range of synthesis tools forautomatically building models of potential designs. Theseinclude Filter Designer 2D for planar filters, Filter Designer3D for cross-coupled cavity filters and the Array Wizard forantenna arrays. In addition, the software offers links to theSIMULIA electromagnetic tools Antenna Magus for antennadesign and FEST3D for waveguide design.
SIMULATIONSolversThe solvers are the foundation of CST Studio Suite. From thegeneral purpose solvers like the Time Domain and FrequencyDomain Solvers, suitable for a wide range of scenarios, tomore specialized ones for applications such as electronics,electron devices, motors and cables, CST STUDIO SUITEoffers best-in-class solvers for EM simulation. Multiphysicseffects can also be simulated using the thermal and structuralmechanics solvers, which can be coupled with the EM solversfor an integrated workflow.OptimizersOne key benefit of simulation is that devices can be optimizedin order to improve their performance, tune them to stringentspecifications, or reduce production cost. CST STUDIO SUITEincludes built-in local and global optimizers, which can beused with all solvers to optimize any design parameters ofthe model.Post-ProcessingPost-processing allows simulation results to be used in awide range of analysis to replicate common measurementsand figures of merit. The post-processing templates inCST Studio Suite offer solutions for common workflows suchas eye diagrams for electronics, efficiency mapping for motorsand field analysis for MRI, as well as versatile general purposetemplates for creating custom workflows.Hybrid and System SimulationDifferent aspects of simulation are often well suited todifferent solvers. For example, antennas are often bestsimulated by the Time Domain Solver, but large platformssuch as vehicles are better suited to the efficient IntegralEquation Solver – an analysis of the installed performanceof a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) antenna on a car includes both.System Assembly and Modeling (SAM) in CST Studio Suiteallows simulations to be combined into a single 3D modelor a linked automatic workflow, and the Hybrid SolverTask allows multiple solvers to be combined in a singlesimulation task.Life Sciences: Electric field from a pacemaker antenna inside thehuman body.Industrial Equipment: EM (left) and thermal (right) simulation of a microwave oven in use.
