摘要: ABSTRACTImprovements in the models of simulating lossy inductive components quasi-static approximation Elmer finite-element software is presented (Elmer, n.d.). Models include laminate stack for core materials; massive, stranded, and foil winding inductors; coupling to external circuits. The strong scaling parallel performances with different mesh solver settings are measured a cluster environment. All scale well up at least 96 processes.
