New Constitutive Matrix in the 3D Cell Method to Obtain a Lorentz Electric Field in a Magnetic Brake

摘要

In this work, we have obtained a new constitutive matrix to calculate the induced Lorentz electric current of in a conductive disk in movement within a magnetic field using the cell method in 3D. This disk and a permanent magnet act as a magnetic brake. The results obtained are compared with those obtained with the finite element method (FEM) using the computer applications Getdp and femm. The error observed is less than 0.1173%. Likewise, a second verification has been made in the laboratory using Hall sensors to measure the magnetic field in the proximity of the magnetic brake.
