[Getdp] vector normal to a magnet

[Patrick Dular]

Hello,

You can use the 'Rotate' function (here to rotate a vector in the 
xy-plane around the z-axis):

Rotate[ _bRemanentVectorInTheFrameOfTheMagnet[],  0, 0, 
_RotationAngleOfEachMagnetInRadians ]

with, e.g.,

_bRemanentVectorInTheFrameOfTheMagnet[] = b_remanent * Vector[0,1,0]; // 
with the normal to the magnet along the local y-axis

You know the '_RotationAngleOfEachMagnetInRadians' value from your 
geometry data.

Check the result by post-processing your new br[] function.
