Investigation of Induced Eddy Currents in Micrometer Grains of Magnetic Materials

Magnetic components constitute one essential part of power converters. Understanding the electromagnetic phenomena that occur in these components is essential for the design of power converters. In this perspective, the project is focused on the modelling of induced eddy currents in small particles constituting powder cores.
