Abstract
Some analytical expressions are reported for the calculation of the magnetic induction and the vector potential in iron-free media due to slab-shaped elements in which a current flows uniformly or linearly distributed in one direction. It is seen that no matter what current distribution functions and conductor geometries are considered, they can be approximated by a series of slabs in which the current distributions are represented by a sum of linear and constant distributions. The algorithms can also be used to calculate the magnetic field in more complicated geometries and to evaluate the self- and mutual-inductance coefficients in systems with massive conductors.Keywords
