How to get started with the Rat GUI
On this page we will post video tutorials to help you with using the Rat GUI. We also have a manual, which can be downloaded here, or by clicking on the image on the right. Both the manual and the video tutorials are work in progress. We invite you to contact us directly in case you have questions after watching these tutorials, reading the written manual or FAQ section.
Since there are many different manner of protecting superconducting coils when they quench, there are also many cases that can be modeled with the adiabatic quench calculation. All these are explained in this video.

Rat is currently only used for magnetostatic calculations, however you can calculate the magnetic field at different times, if you vary the current for instance. That is shown in this tutorial.

For any non-linear magnetic material you can use the non-linear solver to calculate the magnetic field from your coils in the presence of for instance an iron yoke. In this tutorial we explain how to use it.

In this tutorial, we highlight the most important features of the Rat GUI. We'll demonstrate how to build a custom coil, add material properties to the model, make toroids, rotate coils, and perform calculations.

This video demonstrates how to rearrange various sections of the Rat GUI to create a layout that best suits the user's needs. If you accidentally close a crucial section, such as the Node Editor, you can easily reopen it by navigating to the "Window" option in the Menu Toolbar and selecting the desired window to display. Additionally, we showcase different color themes for the GUI, adjustments to font size, model scaling, unit display, and features of the Node Editor Dept.
