Abstract :
A new three-dimensional (3-D) finite element formulation based on the use of the magnetic scalar potential is proposed. It allows the description of multiply connected solid conductors coupled to electric circuits and to take into account the nonlinearities. Like the solutions using the magnetic vector potential, it is a general formulation and offers powerful solutions but at a lower cost.
