Abstract :
For eddy current problems, potential formulations are widely used nowadays. In this paper, residual based a posteriori error estimators are introduced to evaluate the discretization error in the finite element calculation in both case of A/φ and T/Ω harmonic formulations. A device with eddy currents is studied in order to show the efficiency of the proposed estimators.
