An analytical method is developed for the solution of the partial differential equation of the form ∂ 2 H ∂ z 2 = ( μ ρ ) ∂ ∂ t ( H − ε H 3 ) ɛ being small, H being a function of z and t , for the boundary condition that at the surfaces, z = ± a , either H or d H /d z varies harmonically with respect to time, t . Based on this method, expressions are deduced forth e eddy current loss and power factor when a thin ferromagnetic plate is subjected to either a sinusoidal surface magnetizing force or sinusoidal flux, under conditions of saturation. The method gives a clear picture of the effects of saturation on the field distribution.
