Abstract :
The local laws of electromagnetism are derived from a reversible transfer of the global power exchanged throughout the electrical network. Two kinds of devices are identified: (i) those dedicated to power conversion; and their (ii) couplings involved in transmission lines, distribution busways, cablings and connections. While the finite element method appears to be the natural design tool in the former, the so-called PEEC method is the more suitable in the latter. The approach provides a unique description framework for power management, energy efficiency and dedicated design tools.
