Abstract :
Increasingly, we find that coupled physical phenomena (e.g. magnetothermal ones) must be solved in numerical simulation. Real and complex variables mathematicaly coupled and an asymetrical finite element matrix are used in the magnetothermal model. Magnetic and heat transfer phenomena are not studied on the same domain. A generator, Flux-Expert, has been used in order to describe the magnetothermal coupled problem. An induction heating problem has been solved with this method.
