Abstract

A method for 3-D eddy current analysis is given and applied to a problem of asymmetrical conductor with a hole (Problem 7 in Testing Electromagnetic Analysis Methods (TEAM) Workshop)[1]. Adopting the A-Φ formulation, we approximate a weak formulation by the mixed finite element method which was originally developed by the third author for the magnetostatic analysis [2], [3]. Though the mesh is coarser than the proposed one, our results almost agree with experimental ones.
