Abstract

The present disclosure reports on a method to first determine the required electromagnetic stream function, and then iterate on the contouring of the stream function to optimize the force, torque, shielding, and/or mutual inductance of the design after-the-fact without compromising the electromagnetic performance and an electromagnetic coil manufacture according to the method. These parameters are sensitive to the precise positioning of the discrete wires.
