For sinusoidally varying magnetic fields, the induced Eddy currents will not completely penetrate into the interior of a conductive material. This is referred to as the skin effect, and the Eddy current penetration depth for a conductor can be calculated from the following equation

where δ is the penetration depth, f is the frequency, μ is the magnetic permeability of the material, and σ is the electrical conductivity of the material.

Now that the the pre-calculations are finished, we are ready to begin the simulation in ANSYS AIM. Open ANSYS AIM by going to Start > All Apps > ANSYS 18.2 > ANSYS AIM 18.2. Once starting page has opened, select the Magnetics template as shown below.
