 Abstract   Transformer and machine windings with complicated shapes and winding schemes can not be considered in full detail within an overall machine model. In this paper, besides the standard solid and stranded conductor models, specialized conductor models are developed for foil and machine windings which may exhibit particular skin and proximity effects. The conductor models globally behave as the true windings without requiring a full geometrical discretization or detailed winding scheme. They refine adaptively according to local error estimates in the global model, offer smaller computational times and are more reliable than if solid and stranded conductor models would be applied. The conductor models appear as magnetically coupled elements in an external circuit model. The field-circuit coupled model is conveniently represented by a coupled system of equations.
