Re: calulation of the magnetic flux

["Michael Salloker" <michael.salloker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello David,

thank you for your reply, unfortunately we are talking (writing) 
about two differnt things - I think I was to unprecise in my first 
mail.

What I want to calculate is the complete magnetic flux through a 
winding. Say I have a axisymmetric coil with a rectangular cross 
section and n windings, and I want to find out the complete flux 
through this coil, say e.g. for calculating the inductance by

L = Psi / I.

How can I get the result with FEMM?

Michael.
