    Yes, that's right. The boundaries can abut your parts if you use the
    Kelvin Transformation. And looking at the solution in the circle
    representing the external region, you can back out the flux density at
    any point in space.

    Although I've only applied this type of boundary condition to circular
    boundaries, it might be possible to look at more general boundaries.
    I've just fished up the paper:

    A. Stochniol, "A general transformation for open boundary finite
    element method for electromagnetic problems," IEEE Trans. Mag.,
    28(2):1679-1681, March 1992.

    which appears to describe how to do this. I'll have to check it out
    in more detail.

    As an aside, an interesting overview of the topic of open boundary
    problems is:

    Q. Chen and A. Konrad, "A review of finite element open boundary
    techniques for static and quasi-static electromagnetic field
    problems," IEEE Trans. Mag., 33(1):663-676, Jan. 1997.

    Dave.
