Abstract This paper deals with a device which is particularly relevant to test 3D quasi‐static magnetic numerical computations: axial eddy‐current coupling. The authors have performed several numerical finite element method computations for this particular device. The eddy currents problem is solved thanks to 2 classical formulations based on magnetic vector and scalar potentials. Results are compared with experimental measurements made on a magnetic transmission already designed and built.
