UPWIND-LINEAR EDGE ELEMENTS FOR 3D MOVING CONDUCTOR EDDY-CURRENT PROBLEMS

Upwind-linear edge elements, which can eliminate the non-physical osci llation solution, sire presented for 3D moving conductor eddy current problems. This numerical method allows the jump of the normal field co mponent and increases the solution accuracy. The Galekin method is emp loyed in non eddy current domain. This proposed method is used to disc retize the formulation that uses the magnetic field intensity H as it variable in the whole solution region. Eddy current problems involving the moving effects are used to valid;lte this technique.
