Abstract

The goal of this work is the analysis of a time-harmonic eddy current model with prescribed current intensities imposed on the boundary of the conducting domain. We will study a \(\boldsymbol{T},\phi -\phi\) formulation, which combines a current vector potential \(\boldsymbol{T}\) with a scalar potential ϕ. A significant advantage of this method is that the expensive vector unknown \(\boldsymbol{T}\) has to be computed only in conductors. Moreover, the proposed numerical method avoids the building of cutting surfaces what is very convenient in the case of complex geometries.
