Patent ID: 8803517

Claim:
A magnetic-field analyzing apparatus comprising: an input unit that receives physical property data of and position information of elements included in a target to be analyzed; an equation creating unit that creates, using the physical property data received from the input unit, a first equation for calculating a first magnetic field due to a current vector in the target to be analyzed and a second equation for calculating a second magnetic field due to a magnetization vector in the target to be analyzed, the first equation being created by including therein terms concerning the current vector but a term concerning the magnetization vector, and the second equation being created in a form of Poisson's equation whose unknown is a vector potential of the second magnetic field, and creates, by applying a finite element method and a boundary integral method and applying in accordance with change over time of relative positions between the elements included in the target to be analyzed an implicit method to the first equation and the second equation, a first set of simultaneous equations for calculating a time-series value of the first magnetic field and a second set of simultaneous equations for calculating a time-series value of the second magnetic field, respectively; and a magnetic-field calculating unit that calculates the first magnetic field and the second magnetic field using the first set of simultaneous equations and the second set of simultaneous equations, respectively, created by the equation creating unit, and adds the calculated first magnetic field and the calculated second magnetic field to obtain a sum thereof as magnetic field of the target.
