I simulate now with FEMM 4.2. The same simulation was done with CST but CST is 3D software and FEMM 4.2 is a 2D Software.
Is it posible to habe the same results with the simulation??
i have tried and i get the same result in the Y-Z axe but in the X-Z axe i get other Result. Does someone knows why??????
what is posible to do to obtain the same result in all the axes ??

Thank you for helping

It's not clear what the question is.

Both should come reasonably close to the modeled problem when properly applied.

If the modeled problem is uniform in the 3rd dimension, you don't need 3-d F.E. to do it, but if you did you should get the same result.

If the modeled problem is different (for example geometry which is very long in one axis, modeled as 2-d problem in the plane of the other two axes, then it requires some more study to understand how different we expect the solutions to be... need more details.

Also, in general you'll probably get better answers to magnetic F.E. questions in the magnetic forum.

Sorry if that is obvious.
