The main objective of this study is to evaluate the thermal behavior of a plasma micro-discharge in two different gases within a silicon micro hole (close to hundred micrometers in size). The first stage of the simulation based on the Heat Transfer module can return very promising ... Read More
Despite its wide use in industrial or culinary conditions, contact heating has not been extensively studied in the literature devoted to food products. This is mainly due to the difficulty in measuring in a non-invasive way the heat flux transferred as well as the thermal contact ... Read More
The heat and fluid flow calculation inside the melt pool in welding processes is a complex challenge. It can be useful to predict defects in the weld seam or to study the influence of some process parameters. Even if the required equations are mastered over the last few years, the cost ... Read More
A wide variety of engineering applications, such as electronics, solar collectors, and internal combustion engines produce heat. This heat can be a positive or negative aspect for a particular application. Enhancing heat transfer has encouraged many researchers to investigate various ... Read More
Here we present a simulation for evaluation of novel obscurant candidates under high-energy laser (HEL) illumination. This approach incorporates thermal modeling into obscurant characterization, allowing for evaluation of the temperature increase of the candidate obscurants as well as ... Read More
As a part of the Pan-Canadian framework for clean growth, Canada is intent on meeting its 2030 emission targets for which 17% of Canada’s total Green House Gas emissions come from buildings. Given this challenge, emphasis is being placed on developing building designs having greatly ... Read More
Selective Laser Melting (SLM), like many other additive manufacturing techniques, offers flexibility in design expected to become a disruption to the manufacturing industry. The current cost of SLM process does not favor a try-and-error way of research; which gives more room for ... Read More
Heat waste harvesting with thermoelectric systems is a clean, environmentally friendly energy producing option among several methods currently considered. The present study investigates the ability of COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation software to develop models that generate data in good ... Read More
