  • Abstract
    An approach to accurately calculate the reluctance of an air gap is introduced. The approach is easy to handle as it is based on a modular concept where a simple basic geometry is used as a building block to describe different three dimensional air gap shapes. A high degree of accuracy is achieved as the approach is based on an analytical field solution.
