Using COMSOL® for the Development of the UK’s Second Hyperloop Prototype

A. Jocas [1], I. C. H, Chan [1], A. Malekos [1], H. P. Chan [1],
[1] The University of Edinburgh, UK

Hyperloop is a future concept of mass transportation proposed by Elon Musk. It uses electromagnetic propulsion to accelerate a passenger or cargo pod through a low-pressure tube. HYPED, the University of Edinburgh’s Hyperloop Team has created a prototype that uses linear halbach arrays ... Read More

Modeling of Substrate Plate Preheating to Predict Efficiency in the Electron Beam Melting Process

[5] University of Applied Science, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Augsburg, Germany

Additive Manufacturing is revolutionizing the industrial sector for complex and individualized metallic components. The most limiting factor of the widely established laser beam melting technology is the scan velocity due to inertia of the mirrors [1]. In electron beam melting (EBM), ... Read More

Modeling Approach to Facilitate Thermal Energy Management with Phase Change Materials (PCM)

D. Rubinetti [1], D. A. Weiss [1], A. Chaudhuri [2], D. Kraniotis [2],
[1] Institute of Thermal and Fluid-Engineering, University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland
[2] Department of Civil Engineering and Energy Technology, Oslo Metropolitan University, Norway

Thermal energy storage systems receive notable attention within the framework of energy management due to their ability of bridging thermal energy demand and supply, thus leading to an overall efficiency increase. The key component in such systems are materials which convert ... Read More

The Effect of Microchannel Geometry on Dispersing Solute Asymmetries

A. Taylor [1], D. Harris [1],
[1] Brown University, Providence, RI, USA

Within the field of microfluidics, scientists and engineers have found ways to manipulate flow at the micron scale in order to downsize standard experimental procedures. These techniques boast faster results while consuming less resources. Microfluidic devices can be used for point-of ... Read More

Sound Attenuation by Hearing Aid Earmold Tubing

M. Herring Jensen
Widex A/S, Vaerloese, Denmark

In this study we model the sound attenuation properties of a hearing aid earmold tube. The model includes thermoviscous acoustic effects and it couples structural vibrations to the external acoustic field. Moreover, the finite element domain is coupled at two boundaries with an ... Read More

Effects of Thermal and Electro-Osmotic Flux on Grounding Electrodes

I. Ferreira de Rezende Costa¹, M. C. Barbosa¹, A. De Oliveira Costa Neto²
¹UFRJ, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil
²UFVJM, Teófilo Otoni, MG, Brazil

Electricity has become the main source of heat, power, and light used in the modern world. Much of the technological advances made over the last few decades are due to electrical energy. One of the essential components of the electrical system is the grounding network. The continuous ... Read More

Thermohydraulic Study of a Fixed Bed for the Core of a Nuclear Reactor

J. C. Almachi [1], J. A. Montenegro [1],
[1] Departamento de Formación Básica, Escuela Politécnica Nacional, Quito, Pichincha, Ecuador

The fixed beds have the advantage of large heat transfer area, for they are used in some designs of innovative nuclear reactors as the reactor FBNR. Inside of study of fixed beds is important to define the following parameters: flow minimum and velocity profile of cooling fluid, ... Read More

Simulation of a Nozzle in a Borehole

E. Holzbecher [1], F. Sun [2],
[1] German University of Technology in Oman, Muscat, Oman, Germany
[2] Georg-August-Universität, Göttingen, Germany

In boreholes nozzles have to be found advantageous to increase the infiltration rate of water into the subsurface ground. Studies and practice in the field shows that the infiltration of water into permeable aquifers can be improved, if the flow in the borehole is modified. Due to the ... Read More

PCCP Profiling and Tube Wave Analysis of WRE Signal

N. Chowdhury[1], Z. Liao[2], and L. Zhao[1]
[1]Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, Ryerson University, Toronto, ON, Canada
[2]Department of Architectural Science, Ryerson University, Toronto, ON, Canada

Acoustic wave propagation due to the breakage or slippage of reinforced wire in water-filled prestressed concrete cylinder pipe (PCCP) attracts interest in non-destructive pipe testing. Current practice of acoustic emission (AE) detection and wire-break related events (WRE) recognition ... Read More

Laminar Thermal Mixing in Coating Flows
