Abstract :

Maxwell 3D of Ansoft software were used for this study. Ansoft’s solutions are based on a more general program using Maxwell’s equations. A simple analysis has been done for calculating the magnetic force interacted between two magnets of similar poles facing each other. The modeling in Anosoft has been described.
