Abstract

The time-harmonic electromagnetic field in an electrically conductive right-angled wedge due to an inductive excitation by circular coil in air has been calculated. Using a formulation in Cartesian coordinates, the problem domain is truncated in a dimension whose axis is normal to a wedge face, and an approximate series solution found using elementary functions satisfying Maxwell's equations in the quasi-static limit. The coil impedance variation with position and frequency is calculated and compared with measurements made on a coil near the edge of a large aluminium block which approximates the effect of a conductive quarter-space. The comparison between theory and experiment shows very close agreement.
