We present computer simulation results for PEM fuel cells using COMSOL Multiphysics® software. We have developed novel PDE equations at NPL from first principles and these are more realistic than models typically used in literature. The theory includes Maxwell-Stephan and Nernst-Planck ...

INTRODUCTION: Many electrical insulation systems use a combination of gas and solid media. Typical examples considered here include the combination of solid epoxy insulation and SF6 in a gas insulated subsystem (GIS). To understand how such a system performs under DC voltages, accurate ...

Electrostatic precipitators (ESP) are a reliable technology to control emissions of airborne particles in a series of applications such as coal-fired power plants, cement plants or even for domestic fireplaces. Numerical calculations allow further development of electrostatic ... Read More
The high luminosity large hadron collider (HL-LHC) project aims at increasing the integrated luminosity by a factor of 10 from its original value (from 300 to 3000 fb-1) leading to the potential extension of scientific discoveries. To attain this goal, important upgrades will take place ... Read More
Introduction: RFID system uses a Transponder and the near field communication (NFC) antenna and a matching circuit (Figure-1) in which at least latter two must be optimally designed for a higher efficiency. Typically, RFID antennas are flat inductive coils with 2 to 4 turns and are ... Read More
INTRODUCTION: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a broadly used research technique that exploits the magnetic properties of atomic nuclei with non-zero spin in order to determine the physical/chemical properties of the molecules in which they are contained. However, NMR has ... Read More
Examples of Electromagnetic processes are presented: (1) cold crucible, (2) electromagnetic pump, (3) DC electromagnetic brake. A combined approach by using multiphysics modeling with Comsol and experimental validation is used in order to give some guidelines for process improvement and ... Read More
Single turn coils are used in pulsed magnetic technologies for which both magneto-harmonic and transient magnetic analysis are required. We suggest studying one single turn coil example made of a conducting massive coil, an optional conducting field shaper and an internal conducting tube ... Read More
Airliners are often subjected to dangerous atmospheric and weather hazards among which lightning strikes represent a threat for flight safety. Recently, the use of Carbon Fibers Reinforced Composites as structural parts in aircrafts as an alternative to traditional metallic materials. ... Read More
