The increasing demand for more efficient cooling options in the fields of fuel cell mobility and power electronics motivates for the development of novel cooling strategies with improved heat transfer. Forced convection of liquids is a common cooling method and allows high temperature ... Read More
In the sphere of pasta drying, where accurate prediction of temperature and moisture distribution is crucial, the application of modeling and simulation emerges as highly significant. This work focuses on the development of a physical-mathematical model capable of estimating the space ... Read More
In power electronics applications, microelectronic chips face swift temperature changes during operation, characterized by heat pulses of sub-millisecond duration with temperatures rising by hundreds of Kelvin. Over time, these conditions may lead to degradation in the metallization ... Read More
This research presents the design, simulation, and characterization of novel resonator structures based on the principles of coupling electric fields using periodic metamaterial-inspired configurations using COMSOL Multiphysics RF module. The resonators are meticulously crafted to ... Read More
Large centrifugal compressors, which are commonly applied in the oil and gas and in the process industry, may fail due to vibrations of the impeller. These vibrations are induced by pressure pulsations in a compressor stage. These vibrations can be especially strong in so-called dense ... Read More
Sodium is used as a coolant in Fast Breeder Reactors. Eddy Current Flowmeter (ECFM) is used for measurement of sodium flow in the primary pump and at the outlet of the subassemblies. Eddy Current Flowmeter (ECFM) works on the principle of change in the magnetic field profile due to ... Read More
Water removal during paper and board manufacturing is an intensive energy process. The dewatering process generally consists of four stages wherein the last stage is comprised by thermal drying in where remaining water in fibres are evaporated on steam-heated cylinders. The thermal ... Read More
Variations of structure and shape of cells play an important physiological role. For instance, tumor and normal cells can be distinguished by elasticity, indicated by the amount of deformation under given stress. The mechanical characterization of a certain cell type is meaningful to ... Read More
Cilia are slender micro-organelles (200 nm diameter, 10 µm long) that generate propagating waves to propel cells or move fluid. The cytoskeletal structure of the cilium (the axoneme) consists of 9 outer microtubule doublets and 2 central microtubule singlets. Outer doublets are connected ... Read More
This study creates a 2D fluid-structure interaction (FSI) model to study the effect of magnetic field and particle aspect ratio on the period of rotation and symmetry of ellipsoidal paramagnetic particles. The results show that the magnetic field strength has a significant effect on the ... Read More
