Abstract
A simple method for evaluating the effective magnetization due to eddy currents excited by AC magnetic fields in finite conductive objects is presented. The values of magnetization enable the estimation of the forces exerted on the object by the effect of eddy currents. The method relies on assuming a similarity between eddy current magnetization and the magnetization due to diamagnetic effects, which is easier to evaluate. Its validity is checked by comparing results from the eddy current forces with data obtained from conventional but much more complicated methods or from experimental data. The approach may be useful for evaluating the eddy current losses in finite conductive objects excited by AC magnetic fields or the influence of small conductive objects on AC excitation coils. The method combines techniques related to the conventional evaluation of eddy currents in certain 1-D geometries with techniques that approximate behavior of the AC magnetic field in finite objects in a way similar to that followed when the magnetic forces acting on a diamagnetic object are calculated. >
