Resumen de 3D Eddy currents modelling by using a particular two component technique

Antonios G. Kladas, J.A. Tegopoulos

• Several formulations have been developed solving 3D eddy current problems by the Finite element method based on vector quantities. Scalars, involving only one unknown per node of the mesh seem to be, however, more efficient. A particular scalar potential formulation has already been developed which is able to handle 3D magnetostatics,. This technique has been extended for cases involving eddy currents developed at low frequencies, where the skin effect can be neglected.
