We have developed a small environmental chamber to expose a sample to adjustable climate conditions. This climate chamber will be used as sample environment for small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments. SANS is a favorable measuring method, to explore structural changes on the ...

PECM is a necessary extension to traditional ECM for some high-performance materials. Electrolyte flow in the inter-electrode gap (IEG) can be assisted using a magnetic field to allow higher currents, but this creates a magnetohydrodynamic flow. This paper presents a study of flow ...

The aim of this work is to present a model capable to describe the behaviour of a thermal flow sensor under every physical aspect. A generic thermal flow sensor relates the flow properties with a variation in the temperature profile inside the device itself. Thus, it is locally heated ... En savoir plus

COMSOL Multiphysics® software was used in this study to simulate mixing by diffusion and by secondary flow. Particle tracing model was applied to simulate the mixing of cells in the microchannel. Results agreed well with the measurement, an optimal herring-bone structure was proposed for ... En savoir plus

This work investigates the possibility of thermal activation of future tunnels to heat and/or cool the surface buildings or infrastructure such as subways stations. The principle is to insert pipes in the tunnel lining segments, which are connected to a geothermal pump. A heat transfer ... En savoir plus

Introduction: In inductively coupled plasma (ICP) systems the inductive antenna is coupled to the excited plasma inside the low pressure gas reactor. A multi-ICP system can be used for increased area processing and provide additional variables for controlling the plasma. However, ... En savoir plus

Exhaust noise must meet legislation targets, customer expectations and cost reduction which call for design optimization of the exhaust systems in the design phase. One solution is to use 3 dimensional linear pressure acoustics and calculate the transfer matrix of the muffler. The ... En savoir plus

Fluidized Catalytic Cracking (FCC) regenerators utilize a fluidized bed to facilitate catalyst regeneration. Cyclones are used to separate the catalyst from the gas stream and return the catalyst to the fluidized bed; as the gas progresses through the system for further processing. This ... En savoir plus

为了不断地增加磁存储密度，机械硬盘中磁头和盘片之间的间隙，即飞高，已经减小到了 10nm 以下，以比特磁记录技术（BPM）和热辅助磁记录技术（HAMR）为代表的新兴技术不断涌现，给磁头磁盘界面的超薄气体润滑特性研究提出了新的挑战。 COMSOL Multiphysics® 的使用：由于在超薄气体润滑领域，连续介质模型已经不再适用，控制方程为玻尔兹曼方程。本文以 F-K 模型为控制方程，此模型是在线性玻尔兹曼方程和 BGK 方程基础上结合流量连续条件建立的修正雷诺方程。我们使用了 COMSOL Multiphysics® 中的 PDE 接口进行了自定义修正雷诺方程的建模 ...
