Residual Magnetic Field
First of all consider Eq. ( 11.23 ) in the region R c <r<R e . All the values in
Eq. ( 11.23 ) are independent of azimuthal angle due to the cylindrical symmetry of
the problem. This implies that only azimuthal component of the curl is nonzero.
Therefore, substituting of Eq. ( 9.29 )for J into Eq. ( 11.23 )gives

r Œ@ r .rB / @ B r D 0 C m Jd r s rr sin ;
(11.81)
where B r and B are the radial and tangential components of magnetic field and
d r denotes derivative with respect to r, that is d r s rr D ds rr =dr. Maxwell equation
r B D 0 can be written in the form

r sin @ .sin B / D 0:
(11.82)
We seek for the solution of Eqs. ( 11.81 ) and ( 11.82 ) in the form B r D B 1 .r/ cos
and B D B 2 .r/ sin , where B 1 .r/ and B 2 .r/ are unknown functions. This yields
d r .rB 2 / C B 1 D r 0 C m Jd r s rr ;
(11.83)
and
d r r 2 B 1 C 2rB 2 D 0:
(11.84)
For the inner and outside areas, i.e. at r<R c and r>R e , the right-
hand side of Eq. ( 11.83 ) is equal to zero whereas Eq. ( 11.84 ) is valid in the
whole space. Integrating of Eq. ( 11.83 ) over short intervals .R c ";R c C "/ and
.R e ";R e C "/, where " ! 0, gives the boundary conditions for tangential
component B 2
