Abstract :
A new method "Equivalent Magnetized Region Solution" based on scalar potential for solving 3D magnetostatic fields is presented. The current distribution is transformed into a region of magnetic dipoles and only one scalar potential is used to calculate the field. A program "CMF3D" has been developed by finite element method, equipped with program "MESH" for subdividing field region into elements. Three examples by the solution are presented and compared with results from analytical method or experiment.
