Abstract :This paper deals with a “combination method” in which the charge simulation method is combined with finite element method, for electric field calculation. The proposed method has the advantages of both charge simulation method and finite element method, while making up of their disadvantages. In the combination method, field is divided into two regions, one covered by the charge simulation method and the other by the finite element method. These two regions are combined using the continuous conditions for potentials and dielectric flux densities at the boundary. The new method could be applied to non-enclosed multi-dielectrics fields, space charge fields, fields with leakage current and so on. Examples of calculation have revealed that the method affords satisfactory calculation accuracy in application to high voltage power transformer apparatuses.
