In climates with high temperature and solar radiation, reducing the cooling consumption and increasing the standards of indoor comfort are topics of great importance. The roof plays a key role in controlling the indoor thermal comfort. In ventilated roofs, air flow within the ASV (Above ... En savoir plus

The paper presents a method of extraction of electrical equivalent circuit of a one port surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonator from the results of simulation based on finite element method (FEM) using COMSOL Multiphysics software. A one port SAW resonator consists of large number of ... En savoir plus

This paper deals with the numerical study of optimal distribution of rectangular heat sources populated on a substrate board for electronic cooling. The simulations are performed for laminar forced convection conjugate heat transfer with vertical orientation of substrate board. The ... En savoir plus

Fluid flow has the potential to provide significant mechanical energy input for electromagnetic energy harvesters. The effect of a bluff body, such as cylinder played a significant role in the creation of a Karman vortex profile in the fluid flow. We study the effect of the number and ... En savoir plus

The use of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSM) as shaft generators is not new in marine vessels propulsion drive trains. Due to risk of fires in stator windings by internal faults, DNV GL requires the shaft generator to be electrically dead without losing propulsion. This ... En savoir plus

Droplet flow at microscopic scale is often used to enhance many pharmaceuticals and industrial processes (i.e. liquid–liquid micro-extraction, nanoparticle synthesis, slow reactions in microfluidic devices, etc.). In all these processes, the mass transfer rate, at the interface between ... En savoir plus

Descemet membrane detachment (DMD) happen when the aqueous humour (AH) in the aqueous chamber flow into the descrement membrance (DM) space through a break and separate the membrane from the stroma. This often happen after the cataract surgery. The fluid is driven by the buoyancy force ... En savoir plus

High levels of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) in Operating Theatres (OT) is an important issue in order to contribute in prevention of Surgical Site Infections (SSI). Despite of specific plant layouts are applied for OT ventilation (e.g. unidirectional flow), the effective use conditions can ... En savoir plus

A new filter-less method of detecting the spectrum based on wavelength absorption in silicon is proposed. Wavelength dependent absorption coefficient produces a unique excess carrier distribution. Thus the wavelength spectral information can be obtained by measuring the photon generated ... En savoir plus

The primary aim of using jet as mixer, like in case of other mixing devices, is to increase the heat and mass transfer between the phases. Beside the injection position the geometry of the jet mixer and the injection nozzle has a major effect on the injection. In our study COMSOL ... En savoir plus
