EDF Energy use an Eddy Current Inspection Tool (ECIT) to test the properties of graphite bricks in the cores of UK Advanced Gas-cooled Reactors (AGRs). The tool comprises a coil containing an alternating current which generates a magnetic field, inducing eddy currents within the nearby ... En savoir plus

New methods of generating high-frequency magnetic fields of tens or even hundreds of millitesla at frequencies exceeding 2 MHz are allowing important new applications for induction heating. These include heating low conductivity ionic solutions in situations where electric or ... En savoir plus

Localized convection heat and mass transfer can be intensified and optimized by providing exposure to electromagnetic energy. Conjugate heat and mass transfer are configured by solving the momentum, heat and mass transfer simultaneously in both solid (substrate, comprising of a two-phase ... En savoir plus

We have developed Thor: a pulsed power accelerator for performing dynamic material experiments. The design was aided by using the COMSOL Multiphysics® software with the AC/DC Module and RF Module. Our design process involved optimizing the impedance of the system while maintaining a good ... En savoir plus

Localized Joule heating within integrated circuit (IC) chips is the leading cause of non-uniform temperature distribution within the circuit structure of the chips. Such variation in temperature enhances the biased diffusion of metal atoms along current carrying interconnects, a ... En savoir plus

FMR spectra of the periodic microstructures (one-dimensional magnonic crystals, 1D MCs) were obtained using COMSOL with use partial differential equation interface. Results of these calculations were successfully compared with an experimental data for Damon-Eshbach (DE) and Backward ... En savoir plus

Dr. Yosuke Mizuyama is a Lead Engineer at Panasonic Boston Laboratory. He has been working on various electronics for Panasonic Corporation in Japan for many years. His research includes incandescent/fluorescent lamp, electrostatic/pzt inkjet, MEMS and BD/DVD/CD optical drive. His ... En savoir plus

Local and microscopic non-uniformities within the magnetic structure (domains and walls [1]), mainly due to surface effects, anisotropy and exchange energies [2, 3], express itself with space variations of domains geometry and properties from the bulk towards the surface. A first work ... En savoir plus

Accurate and efficient tracking is important for designing particle accelerators as well as many other applications which use electromagnetic fields to control particles. We have developed a tracking code in MATLAB® Simulink® which uses electric and magnetic fields calculated in COMSOL ... En savoir plus

We propose a triple band tunable and high-efficient reflected cross-polarization converter (CPC) in the mid-infrared. The study of graphene-integrated CPC becomes increasingly important, due to its tunable optical performance and small volume. Graphene, a monolayer of carbon atoms ... En savoir plus
