Diabetes mellitus affects 387 million people across the world according to the latest estimates of International Diabetes Foundation. Insulin is one of the major drugs required to keep the glucose level within desired limits in a diabetic patient. Insulin is generally administered to a ... En savoir plus

In recent years, various configurations of planar Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) have been developed for enhancing its performance. The objective of these efforts are centered on reducing polarization losses (also referred as "overpotential") by optimizing the structure and properties of ... En savoir plus

Mufflers are devices used to attenuate engine exhaust noise. Muffler design has become more challenging as the customers look out for good exhaust sound quality, especially for motorcycles. Performance of a muffler in an automotive exhaust system is characterized by Transmission Loss ... En savoir plus

Engine is a major source of noise in motorcycle. Acoustic analysis of a single cylinder motorcycle engine under combustion load is presented. Engine surface acceleration obtained from vibration analysis is used as input for acoustic analysis. Process automation is carried out using java ... En savoir plus

Mutual Inductance based Level sensor has been proposed for high temperature (1000 C) molten metal applications. Modelling and Simulation studies are done using COMSOL Multiphysics® to obtain optimum sensor design, excitation frequency and sensor characteristics. Further temperature ... En savoir plus

The thermal behavior/heat flow of the Moon provides us an insight into its geophysical character and thermal evolution. The thermal behavior within the uppermost (top few meters) regolith layers is more complex due to their complex geometric, thermal and radiative properties. In order to ... En savoir plus

In the following study COMSOL Multiphysics® was used to simulate evaporation of water droplets in a stream of heated air. This was a precursor to the modeling of a humidifier, which is used to humidify the air supplied to fuel cell stack. Since the percentage of water droplets was ... En savoir plus

High-power couplers (both coaxial and ridge waveguide type) at UHF frequencies are presently under development for the Low Energy High Intensity Proton Accelerator (LEHIPA) project and 1 GeV proton accelerator at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre. Ridge waveguide coupler transitions the ... En savoir plus

We present the utilization RF module of COMSOL Multiphysics® for understanding three different types of wave guidance mechanisms in photonic crystal fibers (PCFs), like modified total internal reflection, Bragg’s reflection and resonant trapping of defect mode at Dirac frequency. ...
