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
An interaction of aluminum aircraft skins with a laboratory-simulated, low-level, long-duration, continuing current representative of a natural lightning flash was modeled with COMSOL Multiphysics. For the analysis of the lightning direct effects on aircraft, the external environment is ... Read More
Passing alternating current through a wire placed just above a conducting surface induces eddy currents in that surface. Any cracks present in the conductor modify the eddy current distribution, creating a magnetic field signature unique to the crack. This magnetic signature can be ... Read More
Micro-power generators (MPGs) harvest and store small amounts of ambient energy. The motivation of this paper is to compare the MPG modeling and simulation results obtained from COMSOL Multiphysics® with those obtained using three other approaches: CoventorWare®, ANSYS® and ... Read More
A proximity DC current sensor using of a piezo sensed and actuated cantilever beam with a permanent magnet mounted at its free end is designed and simulated in COMSOL Multiphysics. The change in resonant frequency of cantilever is a measure of the current through the wire. The sensor is ... Read More
Three-dimensional finite element (FE) modeling of magnetic flux leakage (MFL) technique has been performed using COMSOL 3.4 for prediction of leakage fields from surface and sub-surface defects in a 12 mm thick carbon steel plate. The tangential and normal components of leakage fields ... Read More
Microfabricated planar interdigitated electrodes can detect and analyze cells or particles giving an impedance-based characterization. This method presents several advantages: real-time detection, label-free analysis, non-invasive sensing, easiness of integration and high-throughput ... Read More
Dr. R. N Singh is currently a INSA Senior Scientist. Prior to this appointment, he was a CSIR Emeritus Scientist at the National Geophysical Research Institute (NGRI), Hyderabad. He has been the Scientist-in-Charge of CSIR Centre of Mathematical Modeling and Computer Simulation, ... Read More
This elaboration presents the Active Magnetic Suspension (AMS) and radial Active Magnetic Bearing (AMB) as a representative of the Active Magnetic Levitation Systems (AMLS). The laboratory test rigs are analyzed in the 2D space. The control algorithm as well as the motion dynamics are ... Read More
The paper presents the results of the experiment consisting in determination of the influence of the magnetic field on deformations of the stator and the rotor of the DC motor. The numerical model of the motor for the frameless DC machine of the G series has been elaborated. Real ... Read More
