Calculation of eddy currents in moving conductors using the meshfree charge simulation method

In this paper, the mesh free charge simulation method is used for determination of eddy currents inside a conductor translatory moving in a field of the permanent magnet. Using a reference finite element solution, we investigate the position of the inflated boundary surface where the fictitious sources are randomly located. The method can handle arbitrary shaped conductors and arbitrary oriented magnetization vectors. The proposed procedure is shown to be simple and computationally accurate.
