The magnetic field created by a bar magnet is analyzed.
The vectors of the magnetic field and the magnetic flux density are solved.
Unless specified in the list below, the default conditions will be applied.
Results will vary depending on Femtet version and the PC environment.

A solid body of ferrite magnet (mag) is defined.
The magnetizing direction of the ferrite magnet is +Z by default.
That means the top of the magnet is the north magnet pole and the bottom is the south magnet pole.

The vectors of the magnetic field in the air are shown below. The magnetic field of the magnet is hidden.
The vectors of the magnetic field inside the magnet are shown below. The magnetic field in the air is hidden.
At the magnet poles, the directions of the magnetic field are reversed for the inside and the outside of the magnet.
The vectors of the magnetic flux density are shown below.
Inside the magnet, the directions of the magnetic flux are the reversal of those of the magnetic field.
