For the folks that don't know what that is, it's one of the first electric generators ever invented. As you can see it's ridiculously simple. However I have no clue how to use the existing tools in Maxwell 3d to get a rotating brush-commutator system going in order to analyze the data, I have used Maxwell 3d before for AC systems but this is completely new. Is it even possible? Any experts out there that know how? Any help would be appreciated!
