This isn't really a trivial thing to do. I have used the program to obtain 
values for a parametric model of the machine, which could then be used for 
transient analysis. However, femm isn't to the point yet where you can just 
plug in an external circuit. If you are interested in adding some 
functionality, I can send the source for femm 3.0. (I've decided to release 
this version under the Aladdin Free Public License, but I just haven't gotten 
around to packaging the source in a coherent way, or wrapping up a bunch of 
relatively small changes that I need to make to the beta to make it a release 
version).

Dave.
