Really excited to share this new update on combining FastHenry and Blender, I've now added the ability to calculate the mutual inductance between objects! Also developed a basic UI inside Blender to visualise the results and to highlight the inductively coupled objects.
Here is a video showing some examples of what you can do now. First demo shows how you can model the impedance of die bond wires and the coupling to adjacent wires, you make adjustments to their lengths and curvatures and see the results in near-real-time. Second demo shows calculating inductances and mutual inductance of air-core inductors with arbitrary positions and deformations. Third demo shows simulating PCB coils over a range of frequencies for applications such as wireless power and distance sensing.
And you can combine this with Electromag Nodes to visualise the magnetic fields!
This is has been a fun project, I've learnt a lot about Python, and it shows how Blender is such a flexible tool where you can use it to build anything and to integrate with other external tools.
