This example studies heat transfer in a composite two-dimensional structure. Four materials with distinct thermal conductivities k compose the structure. The top and bottom boundaries are facing environments respectively at 0°C and 20°C. The temperature distribution and the heat flux ... Read More
This model shows how shape optimization can be used design the coils of an ICP reactor to obtain plasma uniformity. The reactor in study is a planar ICP with the coils distributed along the radial direction. The Optimization study step is used to find the best coil placement so that the ... Read More
This example models flow in a microchannel heat exchanger by coupling a Laminar Flow interface in 3D to a Pipe Flow interface. By the use of the Pipe Flow interface to model the flow in the microchannels the problem size is significantly reduced. This model showcases the Pipe Connection ... Read More
A split ring resonator (SRR) has a band-stop frequency response that rejects a certain range of frequency. This type of SRR structure is popularly used as a resonator itself and can be combined periodically to build artificial meta-materials. In this model, a printed SRR on a ... Read More
The noise emitted from an electrical machine can have many sources. In this example, acoustic noise from vibrations created by magnetic force variation is studied. Such noise is often audible at twice the excitation frequency but can also occur at higher frequencies or harmonics of the ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to use the Polynomial Shell feature to increase the lowest Eigenfrequency of a shell by deforming its shape. Read More
This example shows how to perform a High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) analysis with a non-proportional load history caused by a transversal force and a torque which are applied in different combinations. Three different fatigue models (Findley, Matake, and Dang Van) are compared. Read More
Small heating circuits find use in many applications. For example, in manufacturing processes, they heat up reactive fluids. The device in this tutorial consists of an electrically resistive layer deposited on a glass plate. The layer results in Joule heating when a voltage is applied to ... Read More
This model shows how to combine an electric circuit simulation with a finite element simulation. The finite element model is an inductor with a nonlinear magnetic core and 1000 turns, where the number of turns is modeled using a distributed current technique. The circuit is imported ... Read More
Piezoelectric valves are frequently employed in medical and laboratory applications due to their fast response times and quiet operation. Their energy efficient operation, also dissipates little heat, which is often important for these applications. This model shows how to model a ... Read More
