Abstract :
The eddy-current distribution in a thin conducting nonmagnetic steel plate is calculated by using the finite volume method. Adopting finite volume methods, the governing equations are enforced along closed paths, and the simultaneous linear system with unknown nodes of current vector potential T can be formed in a very straightforward way. The numerical results show very good agreements with the experimental data of TEAM problem 21.
