Improving Thermal Effect on Biological Tissue using Multiphysics Simulation and Shape Optimization

A. Ward [1],
[1] System Insight Engineering, Centennial, CO, USA

As minimally invasive and robotic surgical devices get smaller, designing precise energy delivery to create the desired tissue effect becomes a key component in product development. With many interdependent physical phenomena occurring simultaneously, it becomes necessary to use tools ... Read More

Evaporative Cooling in Solar Absorption Chiller

J. Ma [1], M. J. Suh [1],
[1] Sam Houston State University, Huntsville, TX, USA

Solar cooling systems based on evaporation and absorption processes have been actively studied and different mechanisms based on various refrigerants are designed and developed. Amongst these systems, a single-stage close cycle design utilizing lithium bromide salt and water (LiBr-H2O) ... Read More

Electromagnetic Simulation of Split-Core Current Transformer for Medium Voltage Applications

N. Paudel [1], V. Siddharth [1], S. Shaw [1], D. Raschka [1],
[1] ABB, Inc., Instrument Transformers & Distribution Components, Pinetops, NC, USA

In electric distribution network, current and voltage measurement for metering, monitoring, and protection & control applications is done via instrument transformers (current and voltage transformers). These measurement devices are deployed during the construction phase of the ... Read More

Development of Eddy Current Probe using FEM for Matte Level Detection in Pyrometallurgical Furnaces

A. Saleem [1], P. R. Underhill [1], D. Chataway [2], T. Gerritsen [2], A. Sadri [2], T. W. Krause [1],
[1] Department of Physics and Space Science, Royal Military College of Canada, Kingston, ON, Canada
[2] Hatch Ltd., Mississauga, ON, Canada

Pyrometallurgical furnaces are used to produce metals such as copper, nickel and platinum by the smelting process. During smelting, the undesired material components are separated from the desired metal resulting in the formation of a slag and matte/metal phase. The slag phase ... Read More

Automated Meshing of Evolving Microstructures from High-Throughput Grain Growth Simulations

M. Golt [1], E. Hernandez-Rivera [1],
[1] U.S. Army Research Laboratory, Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD, USA

Microstructure evolution simulations using the kinetic Monte Carlo algorithm and the phase field method are routinely used to model and simulate sintering and densification of ceramic and metallic materials. Understanding evolution of microstructural features is important as these are ... Read More

Analysis of Electromagnetic Fields in Urban Environments

J. Crompton [1], L. Gritter [1], S. Yushanov [1], K. Koppenhoefer [1],
[1] AltaSim Technologies, Columbus, OH, USA

Electromagnetic fields are pervasive in today’s urban environment and under certain circumstances exposure has led to safety hazards that have been reported to cause personal injury. The United States Department of Labor has reported multiple cases of electrical shock on construction ... Read More

Computational Fluid Dynamics Approach to Evaluate Electrostatic Precipitator Performance

M. Ahmadi [1]
[1] Faculty of Engineering Technology, University of Twente, Enschede, The Netherlands

Electrostatic precipitation is an extremely efficient way of filtering fine particles from the airstream. Electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) can control airborne emission without significantly slowing down the rate of flow, because of the low pressure drop across this type of filters. A ... Read More

Radiofrequency Ablation and Its Effect on Heat Generation on Ground Pads

J. J. Barrett [1], M. Brown [1,][2],
[1] Halyard Health, Alpharetta, GA, USA
[2] Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, USA

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used to treat chronic pain. Radiofrequency (RF) energy is emitted through a probe that is placed near a sensory nerve in the region of pain. The RF energy excites the nearby ions in the tissue causing them to ... Read More

Electroceutical Modeling with Advanced COMSOL® Techniques

K. Carlson [1,][2], J. Begnaud [3], J. L. Shils [4], S. Dokos [5], L. Mei [1,][2], J. E. Arle [1,][2]
[1] Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, MA, USA
[2] Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA
[3] Livanova Neuromodulation, Houston, TX, USA
[4] Rush Medical Center, Chicago, IL, USA
[5] University of New South Wales, Sydney, NSW, Australia

Neuromodulation is the use of electromagnetic fields to modulate the human nervous system, typically to treat neurological disorders. Electroceuticals is an ambitious program to modulate any nerve, anywhere, anytime, for any reason — to treat disease, disorders, and enhance or interface ... Read More

Modeling of Electro-Thermal Microbolometer for Thermal Imaging

A. Nowicki [1], A. Bennecer [1],
[1] Mechanical Engineering, University of Northampton & Gdańsk University of Technology, Gdańsk, Poland
[2] Engineering, University of Northampton, Northampton, United Kingdom

A Microbolometer is a specific type of uncooled infrared radiation detector used in thermal cameras, which converts the incoming energy into a proportionate electrical signal, which is then amplified, processed and displayed, typically on the thermal camera’s LCD viewer. The main ... Read More
