Liquid metal loops are used for heat removal and for the study of certain magneto-fluidic phenomenon like MHD (Magneto-Hydro Dynamic) effects. These loops operate at high temperatures and carry fluids that are invariably toxic in nature. Ensuring the purity of fluid in a closed loop ... En savoir plus

This paper presents the solution of a transient electromagnetic problem using COMSOL Multiphysics. The paper also presents a closed-form solution of a transient electromagnetic dipole. The computational solution compares well with a closed-form solution for this problem. This work ... En savoir plus

An electromagnetic horn is a device used in particle physics to produce a strong pulsed toroidal magnetic field and to focus charged particles toward a detector. A multiphysics analysis is performed to assess the stress level inside the horn structure. In steady state regime, the horn ... En savoir plus

Uterine contractions during pregnancy are currently poorly understood – experts disagree on the mechanisms by which contractions propagate through the organ and the structural layout of the uterine muscle fibers. We have developed a multi-scale model of the uterus, at the cellular, ... En savoir plus

Carbon fiber as filaments or as continuously reinforced composite finds application in the electronic packages, electric vehicles, and electrical machines, owing to its excellent electromagnetic (EMI) shielding and high conductivity. Carbon fiber being good conductor of electricity (in ... En savoir plus

Due to the increase on the academic and industrial interest on thermal energy storage (TES) systems, the EU Horizon project HYSTORE is developing 4 different solutions. In these solutions, the use of thermochemical materials (TCM) and phase-change materials (PCM) are proposed. We ... En savoir plus

Chemical reactions performed under microwave irradiation often have high reaction rates and high selectivities, which enable reactor sizes to be compact and processes to be energy-conserving. A microwave oven is widely used for microwave chemical processing and chemical synthesis. The ... En savoir plus

Electromagnetic shielding design is usually approached referring to nominal values of the main parameters. This could lead to malfunctioning devices and its performance differ widely from what was really aimed at or, worse, the final design product could even be physically unrealizable. ...

The AC losses that superconducting magnet systems experience during transient events are an important design consideration in fusion reactors. We present results on the approach for calculating AC losses in the high temperature superconducting (HTS) toroidal field (TF) magnets of the ... En savoir plus

Introduction: This study presents the 3D electromagnetic model in layered media using induction logging tool. This algorithm utilizes electromagnetic wave frequency domain (EWFD) interface of Maxwell equations. Electromagnetic methods are popular tools for the measurement of resistivity ... En savoir plus
