ALTERNATIVE — SIMSCALE
NO QUEUE
NO MESH
WPT-SPECIFIC
The focused SimScale alternative.
SimScale’s Time-Harmonic Magnetics module is general-purpose and queue-based. AirInduct Sim is dedicated to wireless power, runs locally in your browser without a solver queue, and ships eight WPT topology presets.
01. · Why teams pick AirInduct over SimScale
- No solver queue — Biot–Savart runs on your device in seconds.
- WPT-specific UI: Tx / Rx, coupling k, mutual M, Q-factor as first-class outputs.
- Eight topology presets including SAE J2954-aligned EV pad geometries.
- Free tier with no community-project disclosure requirement.
- Validated against the foundational WPT literature.
02. · Where SimScale still wins
Coupled CFD + thermal + EM simulations and a much broader physics library beyond WPT. If your project spans many domains, SimScale is the bigger toolbox.
03. · Use them together
Iterate your coil design in AirInduct’s instant solver, then push the final geometry into SimScale for thermal and structural validation. Fast loop here, deep loop there.
