Performance Prediction of Eddy Current Flowmeter for Sodium

P. Sharma[1], S. K. Dash[1], B. K. Nashine[1], S. S. Kumar[1], R. Veerasamy[1], B. Krishnakumar[1], P. Kalyanasundaram[1], and G. Vaidyanathan[1]
[1] Fast Reactor Technology Group, Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research, Kalpakkam, Tamil Nadu

Sodium is used as a coolant in Fast Breeder Reactors. Eddy Current Flowmeter (ECFM) is used for measurement of sodium flow in the primary pump and at the outlet of the subassemblies. Eddy Current Flowmeter (ECFM) works on the principle of change in the magnetic field profile due to ... Read More

Damping in Dense Gas Acoustic Structure Interaction

J. P. M. Smeulers [1], H. P. Pereboom [1], N. González Díez [1],
[1] TNO, Delft, The Netherlands

Large centrifugal compressors, which are commonly applied in the oil and gas and in the process industry, may fail due to vibrations of the impeller. These vibrations are induced by pressure pulsations in a compressor stage. These vibrations can be especially strong in so-called dense ... Read More

Modeling of an Ensemble Averaged Electric Arc in a Laboratory-Scale Electric Arc Furnace

Sergey Semenov¹, Patrick Namy¹, Magnus Sievers², Bernd Friedrich²
¹SIMTEC, Grenoble, France
²IME Process Metallurgy and Metal Recycling, RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, Germany

This work, which is done in the framework of the SisAl Pilot EU project, presents the use of the COMSOL Multiphysics® software for simulating an ensemble averaged electric arc in a laboratory-scale electric arc furnace. The SisAl Pilot project aims at optimising the silicon production in ... Read More

A Heat Transfer Simulation for Heat Management in the Design of a New ReactorSTM

Elahe Motaee¹, Dr. Irene M.N. Groot¹
¹Leiden University

With the ReactorSTM the relationship between surface structure and catalyst activity under industrially relevant conditions can be investigated. It enables atomic-scale observations of model catalysts under conditions approaching those used by the chemical industry. It consists of a ... Read More

To a Fluidic Diode for Biomedical Application

[3] Biomedical Engineering laboratory, University of Tlemcen, Algeria

This work is focused on Micropump optimization for drug delivery application. Diabetes is one of the widely pervaded diseases. Among the side effects of hyperglycemia is the weakness of the whole body, so the patient will be unable to inject manually the drug. Therefore, Micropumps are ... Read More

Study of Rotation of Ellipsoidal Particles in Combined Simple Shear Flow and Magnetic Fields

C. Wang [1], J. Zhang [1],
[1] Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Missouri University of Science and Technology, Rolla, MO, USA

This study creates a 2D fluid-structure interaction (FSI) model to study the effect of magnetic field and particle aspect ratio on the period of rotation and symmetry of ellipsoidal paramagnetic particles. The results show that the magnetic field strength has a significant effect on the ... Read More

Chaining Dynamics of a Pair of Ellipsoidal Micro-Particles Under a Uniform Magnetic Field

J. Zhang[1], C. Wang[1]
[1]Missouri Univ of Sci and Tech, USA

Due to particle interactions, magnetic particles suspended in non-magnetic fields tend to form chains, clusters or columns under magnetic fields. The non-spherical magnetic particles in the suspension show different rheological properties compared to spherical particles. In this paper, ... Read More

3D Acoustic-Structure Interaction of Ultrasound in Fluids for the Manufacture of Graded Materials

J. Holt [1], C. Torres-Sanchez [1], P. Conway [1], M. G. Garcia-Romero [1],
[1] The Wolfson School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering, Loughborough University, Leicestershire, UK

Functionally graded materials (FGM) are those that contain chemical, phase or structural gradients. Whilst the design of functionally graded structures is well researched in areas such as shape optimisation and topology optimization, their manufacture is still in development. One ... Read More

Simulation of a Novel Induced-Charge Electrokinetic Actuation Mechanism for a Diaphragm Micropump

A. Eden[1], F. Lorestani[1], S. Mackenzie[1], S. Minne[1], D. Huber[1], C. Meinhart[1], S. Pennathur[1]
[1]University of California, Santa Barbara, USA

From microelectronics cooling to biological analysis and wearable therapeutic infusion systems, micropumps are steadily becoming a valuable and ubiquitous tool for fluid transport and thermal management. Hence, the development of novel actuation mechanisms that allow for precise ... Read More

Parametric Investigation of the Common Geometry Shapes for Added Mass Calculation

J. H. Lee [1], A. Koushesh [1],
[1] American University of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates

This work is aimed to demonstrate how variation of geometries' parameters would affect the fluid loading effect in water using COMSOL Multiphysics and compared with analytical data. When a structure is placed in water, the interaction between the water and the structure plays an ... Read More
