info = "<html>\n<p>\nEddy currents are induced in a conductive magnetic flux tube when the flux changes with time. This causes a magnetic voltage drop in addition to the voltage drop that is due to the reluctance of this flux tube. The eddy current component can be thought of as a short-circuited secondary winding of a transformer with only one turn. Its resistance is calculated from the geometry and resistivity of the eddy current path.\n</p>\n\n<p>\nPartitioning of a solid conductive cylinder or prism into several hollow cylinders or separate nested prisms and modelling of each of these flux tubes connected in parallel with a series connection of a reluctance element and an eddy current component can model the delayed buildup of the magnetic field in the complete flux tube from the outer to the inner sections. Please refer to <a href=\"modelica://Modelica.Magnetic.FluxTubes.UsersGuide.Literature\">[Ka08]</a> for an illustration.\n</p>\n</html>",
