Purpose - The purpose of the paper is to present a method for efficiently obtaining the steady-state solution of the quasi-static Maxwell's equations in case of nonlinear material properties and periodic excitations.Design/methodology/approach - The fixed-point method is used to take account of the nonlinearity of the material properties. The harmonic balance principle and a time periodic technique give the periodic solution in all nonlinear iterations. Owing to the application of the fixed-point technique the harmonics are decoupled. The optimal parameter of the fixed-point method is determined to accelerate its convergence speed. It is shown how this algorithm works with iterative linear equation solvers.Findings - The optimal parameter of the fixed-point method is determined and it is also shown how this method works if the equation systems are solved iteratively.Originality/value - The convergence criterion of the iterative linear equation solver is determined. The method is used to solve three-dimensional problems.
