The magnetic fields in nonlinear anisotropic magnetic materials were analyzed by using the Finite Element Method (FEM). The measured data was directly used in the computation without a complicateded smoothing. The resultant asymmetric linear equations were solved by using the ILUBiCGStab method without symmetrization or the ICCG method with symmetrization. The magnetic flux distributions in a ring core model showed the characteristic patterns according to the non-oriented, grain-oriented and doubly-oriented magnetic properties. The good convergence of the Newton-Raphson nonlinear iteration was attained by the iterative solvers without special techniques for the smoothing.
