Abstract
To enhance the accuracy of solving magnetostatic equations at permanent-magnet boundaries, we propose a conservative finite-difference scheme for the scalar magnetic potential based on the integro-interpolation method. The features of discretization of magnetization divergence in regions of a function having discontinuities of the first kind are considered. To validate the scheme, we developed an algorithm and implemented a program for computing permanent magnets using Python 3.11 and the Taichi library. The proposed scheme preserves conservation laws and ensures high computational accuracy, making the results applicable to magnetic-field calculations in technological discharge devices for the formation of functional layers and coatings in microelectronics and optics, as well as to engineering problems related to magnetic dynamics.
