MagneticPDEComponent

yields a magnetic PDE term with variables vars and pars.

Details

MagneticPDEComponent generates an equation to model magnetostatics and low-frequency electromagnetics with model variables vars and model parameters pars.
MagneticPDEComponent returns a sum of differential operators to be used as a part of partial differential equations:

MagneticPDEComponent models static magnetic fields produced by permanent magnets or magnetic and electric fields that are generated by low-frequency electric currents flowing in conductive materials.
MagneticPDEComponent is typically used to model electric motors, inductors and electromagnets.
MagneticPDEComponent creates PDE components for stationary, time, frequency and parametric analysis.

MagneticPDEComponent models magnetostatics and low-frequency electromagnetic phenomena with the dependent magnetic vector potential in units of [] and independent variables in units of [].
MagneticPDEComponent can model external currents also in the static case.
In the static case, when no currents are present, MagnetostaticPDEComponent should be used.
The vector-valued dependent variable is specified as a three-vector ={A_x₁,A_x₂,A_x₃}.
Stationary variables vars are vars={[x₁,…,x_n],{x₁,…,x_n}}.
Frequency-dependent variables vars are vars={[x₁,…,x_n],ω,{,…,x_n}}.
Time-dependent variables vars are vars={[t,x₁,…,x_n],t,{x₁,…,x_n}}.
MagneticPDEComponent provides a stationary magnetic model:

In 2D, with an out-of-plane direction, the magnetic vector potential has only a component. In the stationary linear case, the equation is given by:

[] is a variable denoting a "Thickness" in the direction and the dependent variable is specified as ={0,0,A_z}.
