PYLEECAN project provides a user-friendly, unified, flexible simulation framework for the multiphysic design and optimization of electrical machines and drives. The main objective of PYLEECAN is to boost reproducible research and open-science in electrical engineering. Thus, it is intended for researchers, R&D engineers and teachers in electrical engineering, both on standard and novel topologies of electrical machines.

PYLEECAN is fully coupled to FEMM to carry non-linear magnetostatic analysis including sliding band and symmetries. For now this coupling is available (only on Windows OS).
PYLEECAN includes an iron losses model (based on FEMM coupling output).
PYLEECAN includes an electrical model to solve the equivalent circuit of PMSM and SCIM machines.
PYLEECAN is coupled to GMSH 2D/3D finite element mesh generator to run third-party multiphysic solvers.
PYLEECAN is coupled to a multiobjective optimization library to carry design optimization of electrical machines.
PYLEECAN enables to define Parameter Sweep of variable speed simulations.
PYLEECAN includes a Graphical User Interface to define main 2D radial flux topologies parametrized geometries (SPMSM, IPMSM, SCIM, DFIM, WRSM, SRM, SynRM) including material library.
Possibility to import Slot or Hole from DXF files
Star of Slot Winding (with swat-em) and User Defined Winding
Generic Geometry modeler to draw complex machines in the software coupled with PYLEECAN
Notches (Yoke and Bore) / Uneven Bore shape (Lamination without slot only) / Machine with more than 2 laminations
