A collection of animated models in Excel. They were created using cell formulas and VBA. No add-ons or any kind of plugins were used. Read More... "Excel Magic Animation"
This section is dedicated to modeling mechanical systems in Excel 2003 standard.
Electric Motor & Air Compressor Excel Animation – Dynamic simulation demo/preview
This is a model I made quite some years back to model the stability of an air compressor driven by an electric motor. The purpose was also to try to select the motor parameters, transmission ratios, energy loss in the flexible couple. I will make the Excel file available at a later date. Read More...

How to Create a Wireframe Internal Combustion Engine 2D Animation in MS Excel – Preview
I am including a preview of our next series of tutorials about creating wireframe animations and games in MS Excel. These wireframe animation methods can be used in various engineering Excel models, as well as in scientific models and games in Excel. This training will be about creating a simple internal combustion engine 2D model in MS Excel. Join out… Read More...

Animated Asynchronous Electric Motor Model in MS Excel
This is an animation of an asynchronous electric motor in Microsoft Excel. You can download the model by clicking on the icon below and trying to run it. What is an electric motor and how does an electric motor work? An electric motor is part of a larger class of devices known as electric machines. In order to define an… Read More...

A Basic Planetary System – video preview
Since not everybody has Excel and more and more people are on the dumbed down new versions (2007 and 2010), I am presenting these previews to give the readers a feel of the real speed and feel of some of the models in older Excel versions (in this case 2003). This preview refers to an older model. [sociallocker][/sociallocker] Read More... "A Basic Planetary System – video preview"
A Basic Fourier Transform Calculator in Excel – video preview
This is a video preview of the Fourier transform model presented on this blog before. A tutorial explaining the creation of such a model was posted here too. [sociallocker][/sociallocker] Read More... "A Basic Fourier Transform Calculator in Excel – video preview"
