  • Abstract
    The computation accuracies of the boundary-element method (BEM) and finite-element method (FEM) in transient eddy-current problems are compared by using a slot-embedded conductor model and a diffusion model that can be solved theoretically. For computing the vector potential or magnetic flux density it is shown that larger time-step width can be chosen in the BEM than in the FEM method for the same accuracy
