摘要：To change the current phenomenon of ＂Being an armchair strategist＂ in the research of a stepping motor, the virtual simu- lation system of stepping motor was developed using virtual reality technique. The basic principle of stepping motor was expounded. The development strategy of the simulation software is introduced. Some key problems and their solutions, including coordinate transformation of rotor and order of on-off electricity for stator, were put forward in system development. Finally, there are three virtual simulation examples of the on-off electricity way in this paper. This work provides a valuable auxiliary tool for the study of the stepping motor.
