The magnetic field created by electromagnet consisting of loop coil and magnetic core is analyzed here.
The vectors of the current density, 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.
