Disclosed is a power calculation method of a magnetic circuit. In view of the power problem of a magnetic circuit and the phase problem of a magnetomotive force (MMF) and a magnetic flux in the magnetic circuit, the present disclosure draws a magnetic circuit vector diagram based on an equivalent magnetic circuit vector model, and provides a method for calculating virtual magnetic active power, virtual magnetic reactive power, and virtual magnetic complex power of the magnetic circuit by analyzing the MMF, the magnetic flux, the reluctance, and the magnetic reactance in the magnetic circuit by using the magnetic circuit vector diagram.
