Full analytical solution for the magnetic field of uniformly magnetized cylinder tiles

F. Slanovc et al.

Summary: This paper presents an analytical solution for the magnetic field of a homogeneously magnetized cylinder tile and extends it to solutions for full cylinders, rings, cylinder sectors, and ring segments. The solution is derived by direct integration in the magnetic surface charge picture, resulting in closed-form expressions and elliptic integrals. All special cases are treated individually, allowing the computation of the magnetic field for all possible position arguments r ∈ R-3. A Python implementation and performance analysis are provided, and the implementation is tested against numerical solutions and applied to compute the magnetic field in a discrete Halbach cylinder and a rotation sensor system.
