I checked with the Aussie distributor of ansys leapaust.com.au which is the same mob that did the modeling for Holcomb . They did it around the corner from my office at the time. Amazing. No other os support unfortunately.

I agree.  Been using Linux for over a year now with no reason to ever go back to windoze.  I am sure there is an equivalent program for Linux as many academics and professionals use Linux.  I'll see what I can find.

It seems I made a mistake when first looking at holcombs device, I assumed the rotating magnetic field was linked to a rotor, however the rotor does not spin so its not a rotor, which I guess was an assumption I jumped to because the design is clearly based on a synchronous motor.

@Cadman,cifita, if your trying to do electromagnetic FEA on Linux you can try FEAtool, new, haven't played with but it's free and integrates with Matlab, that or COMSOL.  Don't know what version of Linux you're running (I'm on Manjaro) but you could always run windows in a VM and push most of your cores to it for running simulations.  QEMU/libvirt is great, has a bit of a learning curve, but you can do a lot with it. My current rig is running Linux/Mac OS/Windows (concurrently) no problem and have built 2 other systems like that for my nephews.
Side note on this. A while back I posted in this thread regarding correlations I noticed between this and the 1908 Figuera device.  I haven't really gone in depth on this device but I believe it could work two ways (together), 1st is what I posted "heat", here's a link to JNL Labs for the 2SGen http://jnaudin.free.fr/2SGen/indexen.htm, if you scroll down to the bottom of the page there are three links under 'Interesting Documents to Read' related to this.  2nd which never occurred to me when working on my version of the Figuera device was that Holcomb must have added some open path into his closed magnetic circuit to collect energy from the environment.  It's most likely  just some physical section of his device where his excitation fields (budget) are allowed to pass thru (outside of the generating sections-budget) enhancing the total B field and collecting the excess on collapse/change (budgeted section) .
