Abstract :
Several methods of a posteriori error estimation and adaptive refinement controlling in finite element analysis of 3-D steady-state eddy current field are described in this paper. An improved Z-Z method and a more efficient method of CIL are presented. The numerical models of TEAM Workshop Problem 7 and 21A are used to verify the validity of the presented method.
