Abstract :
A vector form of streamline upwinding is proposed for a three-dimensional edge-element formulation modeling static eddy currents in moving conductors. The streamline upwinding has been implemented in a formulation using a magnetic vector potential and an electric scalar potential and is shown to be very effective in improving convergence
