Abstract
The finite difference time domain (FDTD) method, adapted for magnetic field diffusion problems, is used to study the electromagnetic induction in moving materials by including motional emf in standard FDTD electromagnetic equations. The material movement is implemented by continuously changing material properties in each computational cell consistent to material advection. The flux corrected transport (FCT) algorithm is used to transport magnetic field in a fixed eulerian cell. A higher time-step is achieved by artificially increasing permittivity of the medium. This new approach is validated with standard analytical solutions for planar magnetic flux compression system and magnetic field diffusion in moving conductors with a non-relativistic velocity. To our knowledge, this is the first approach to use FDTD method for electromagnetic problems involving material motion.
