In this paper a thermal electric finite element method (FEM) analysis was used to investigate the thermal properties of individual electrically driven platinum micro-heaters. The geometric optimization for the micro-heater was performed by simulating a wide range of possible geometries ... Read More
This paper presents a design of polymer based micro heater operating in the temperature range of 200- 250°C which could be operated at low voltage (battery operated). The micro heater has been designed and simulated using COMSOL 4.1, FEM simulation tool. Simulation was performed for ... Read More
The computation of electric field strength is the state-of-the-art technique for designing and optimizing High-Voltage (HV) equipment. In this research, the equipment under analysis is Cable Termination (CaTr) which is used to apply high-voltage (75 kV – 800 kV AC) on the cable to be ... Read More
In our experiments with manipulating cells with DEP, we noted that some cells are constantly spining. By hypothesing that the cell spining is caused by the non-circular shape of the cell body and the off-centered location of its nucleus and that the rotation direction depends on the ... Read More
We present examples of the use of COMSOL Multiphysics for the solution of electrical conduction in varistors coupled to the solution of long-term heat-transport through conduction and convection. We fit measured power-loss and impedance data with analytic functions in order to simulate ... Read More
The predictive engineering of materials is matured from predicting properties from known morphology or constituents to engineering novel morphology for superior properties. The focus of this paper is about implementation of computational material mechanics modeling method in COMSOL ... Read More
Numerical simulations can well predict the electric current and temperature distribution in GaN-based LED chips. It can be used to improve the device design and optimization of the LED devices. Future work will include the optical modeling to analyze the optical properties of the LED ... Read More
Although resuscitation during pregnancy is relatively uncommon and rarely causes death, they have a particularly large impact in terms of the mortality of the unborn child and long-term effects on families and society as whole. In this paper, we present a new 3D finite element model of a ... Read More
A ferrofluid contains nanoscale ferromagnetic particles suspended in a carrier liquid. It is used in some high-power acoustic speakers to cool the drive coil. The ferromagnetic particles far from the heat source are attracted by the drive coil’s magnetic field. As the fluid approaches ... Read More
Using COMSOL Multiphysics, studies were performed showing that thermomagnetic siphoning (TMS) is a sufficient manner of regulating the temperature of a bundle of current-carrying wires wrapped with a magnetorheological fluid (MRF) jacket. Because of Curie’s Law, the cooler MRF on the ... Read More
