excuse me
i have a problem about the current density in coil .
I am using the sample "indutiv heating.mph" now, and I changed the current in the coil to 3500A, and changed the coil 's cross surface to rectangle, the frequency is 40kHz. the coil is single turn coil, but in the result, i use surface integration to see the current in the coil, it showed the current is 7700A, but if I use multe turn coil do the calculation (and set the number of turns is 1), the result showed the current is 3500A. I used 2D-axisymmetric.
Can anyone tell me the reason of this different, and which one is right? thank you.
sorry for poor English.

Hi,
I assume that you have integrated "normed current". If you integrate in the "phi" direction the result should be right.
Why this? The single turn coil model includes the skin - and the proximity effect. Possibly the current fractional flows in opposite direction. Those "wrong way driving" currents have to be subtracted to get the right sum. If only the amount added, the value is too high.
You can easily test it, if you picture the current density in "phi" direction.
