Magnetic field density more than saturation

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi all,

I'm modeling a power inductor in comsol 4.3. I'm shocked when I saw a magnetic field density of 40Tesla in a soft Iron (with loss). I was wondering if anyone knoes the reason.

Have you switched to calculate with hb-curve under the constraint amper's law?

I did by using HB curve solve. Thanks so much.
Details for possible future person with problems:
- I added a new ampere law and added the soft iron parts to this solver. I used HB curve for solving.
- I used the buitin Soft Iron h-b curve but with linear interpolation and extrapolation
I found this link useful:

Good luck!
