Abstract: This study first analyses the problems that the solenoid valve generates during operation. Then the electromagnetic
valve was modelled and ANSYS finite element analysis simulation software was used to simulate the electromagnetic field and
transient magnetic field of the solenoid valve. The magnetic induction intensity distribution diagram and magnetic field
distribution diagram of the electromagnet were obtained. According to the simulation results of the solenoid valve, the magnetic
flux leakage line is blocked after the magnetic isolation cover is added, the magnetic induction strength of the iron core and the
valve head is increased, the leakage magnetic flux is reduced, and the structure is optimised.
