Superconducting coil analysis desktop software
Desktop scientific software

Coil geometry in, field, force, and stress out.

CalcSX is a technical desktop interface for superconducting coil analysis: B-field evaluation, Lorentz force density, hoop stress, geometry inspection, and export-ready results in one workflow.

Core capabilities

Built around the actual workflow

Geometry ingestion, automatic structure inference, field and force evaluation, stress diagnostics, and export-ready outputs.

◎

B-field analysis

Compute centroid and on-axis field behavior, with optional cross-section sampling.

↗

Lorentz force density

Resolve segment-wise J×B forces along the arc for engineering interpretation.

◔

Hoop stress

Inspect membrane-based hoop stress trends in MPa across the coil path.

△

PCA inference

Infer symmetry direction and detect planar structure automatically.

≈

Configurable numerics

Tune grid density and on-axis samples for the speed-detail balance you want.

⇩

Export pipeline

Save results to CSV for follow-on analysis in Python, MATLAB, or spreadsheets.

Workflow

From geometry to diagnostics

01

Load CSV

Import 3D centerline coordinates from x, y, z columns.

02

Set parameters

Configure current, winds, tape thickness, width, and sampling controls.

03

Run analysis

Compute B-field, Lorentz force density, hoop stress, and derived outputs.

04

Inspect and export

Review plots and export CSV outputs for downstream use.
