Virtual Voice Coil (VVC) has been developed for loudspeakers and voice coils design. Woofers, Midranges, Tweeters, Compression Drivers, Headphones, Micro Speakers, etc.
The novel B(x) and Bl(x) asymmetry plots permit to optimize motor design and select the best balance for reducing related non-linear distortions of the transducer.
Analytical calculus of the free air voice coil inductance added to Series, Bifilar, Parallel plus all combinations of Series-Parallel multilayers voice coils connection are some of the key features helping designers to simulate precise parameters and optimize loudspeakers.
7 different wire materials (Copper, Aluminum, CCAW, HCCAW, UCCAW, Silver, Gold),
11 former materials and
22 reinforcement tape materials. Materials resistivities and densities are automatically updated on voice coil and loudspeaker parameters.
Circular, Square and Rectangular voice coil shapes, up to 20 layers, selecting Diamond or Hexagonal round wire winding configuration.
Possibility to define vent holes, copper pads and cuts on voice coil former, or customize exit wire leads with a dynamic regulation of maximum allowed dimension.
All new features added to a complete temperature management allow the maximum accuracy for predicting transducer parameters and SPL. Joule Heating slider varies materials thermal expansion, it is useful for keeping under control all correct clearances inside the magnetic gap and power compression.
Membrane force direction audit avoids errors on the loudspeaker phase response.
±XBl displacement and the Maximum Available mechanical eXcursion (MAX) are constantly updated for any parameter or virtual offset change.
The loudspeaker suspensions compliance separation permit to find single component and system resonance frequency. Surround and spider rates measure their contribution on total suspension system. It is also possible to calculate parameters using more than one spider.
Moving mouse over voice coil elements or transducer Thiele & Small parameters instantly plot the variation for available wires.
Transducer Cable Loss, Wire Loss and SPL charts permit to maximize transducer efficiency, then the HTML report is useful to export or share graphs and parameters.
