P. Dular et al., A GENERALIZED SOURCE MAGNETIC-FIELD CALCULATION METHOD FOR INDUCTORS OF ANY SHAPE, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 33(2), 1997, pp. 1398-1401
A general method to compute source fields in magnetostatics or magneto
dynamics is presented for inductors of any shape. That source field is
not the physical one because the zero divergence condition is not sat
isfied. However, the freedom so obtained is exploited to minimize its
support as well as to reduce the CPU time. The use of edge finite elem
ents enables its rigorous construction. A test problem illustrates the
method.
