Simulation of Production Processes using the Multiphysics Approach: The Electrochemical Machining Process

R. van Tijum
Dr.
Advanced Technology Center, Philips Consumer Lifestyle, Drachten, The Netherlands

Redmer van Tijum studied Applied Physics at the University of Groningen. In 2006, he received his PhD title on ‘Interface and surface roughness of polymer metal laminates’ in the field of Material Science at the University of Groningen. After that he became research and development ... Read More

Simplified Multiphysics Model for All-Solid State Microbatteries

M.S. Nesro[1], I.M. Elfadel[1]
[1]Masdar Institute of Science and Technology, Masdar City, Abu Dhabi, UAE

Lithium microbatteries are replacing conventional power sources in many microsystems areas such as wireless sensors and biomedical monitors. In many of these applications, compact models of micro batteries are needed both at the microsystems design stage and at the real-time power ... Read More

Towards a Microscopic Model for Species Transport in Lithium-Sulphur Cells

Geraint Minton [1], Rajlakshmi Purkayastha [1], Laura O’Neill [1], Sylwia Walus [1], Mark Wild [1], Monica Marinescu [2], Teng Zhang [2], Gregory Offer [2],
[1] Oxis Energy Ltd, Abingdon, Oxfordshire, UK
[2] Mechanical Engineering Department, Imperial College, London, UK

Lithium-sulphur (Li-S) batteries have the potential to surpass the energy storage capability of Li-ion batteries due to their high theoretical gravimetric energy density of 2700 Wh/kg. However, the processes which drive the system behaviour are much more complex than those in a Li-ion ... Read More

Parameter Extraction for a Field Weakening Operation Model of a PMSM

J. Smith [1], T. Wenninger [1], H.D. Joseph [1], T. Koch [2], W. Soong [3], N. Ertugrul [3], C. Markgraf [1], A. Frey [1]
[1] Augsburg University of Applied Sciences, Augsburg, Germany
[2] COMSOL Multiphysics GmbH, Göttingen, Germany
[3] The University of Adelaide, Adelaide, Australia

INTRODUCTION: A key parameter for electrical engines is the power density. High power density is particular beneficial for traction drives. Accordingly, optimizing power density is essential for competitive ability in the Formula Student Electric racing series [1]. The operating ... Read More

Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy of a LiFePO4/Li Half-Cell

M. Cugnet[1], I. Baghdadi[1], M. Perrin[1]
[1]INES - CEA, Grenoble, France

This study demonstrates that a multiphysics model of a LiFePO4/Li half-cell can be applied to simulate the impedance results from an EIS. However, it implies that the double layer capacitance has to be taken into account, since it is responsible of the semi-circle in the impedance ... Read More

Stresses Due to Intercalation of Non-Spherical Lithium Storage Particles

R. Purkayastha[1], R. McMeeking[2]
[1]Cambridge University, Cambridge, UK
[2]University of California, Santa Barbara, CA, USA

Due to computational considerations most models of lithium storage particles in batteries incorporate spherical particles. However most storage particles used in battery electrodes tend to be irregular in shape with sharp edges and extended aspect ratios. The change of the relative ... Read More

A Fully Coupled Three-Dimensional Dynamic Model of Polymeric Membranes for Fuel Cells

P. Alotto[1], M. Guarnieri[1], and F. Moro[1]

[1]Dipartimento di Ingegneria Elettrica, Università di Padova, Padova, Italy

The proton exchange membrane is a key component in the currently widely studied Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells. In this paper a fully coupled three-dimensional dynamic numerical model of the membrane including all the physically relevant phenomena, i.e. ion transport, hydration ... Read More

Energy Harvesting in a Fluid Flow Using Piezoelectric Materials

M. Curatolo [1], M. La Rosa [1], P. Prestininzi [1],
[1] Roma Tre University, Rome, Italy

Energy harvesting from a fluid flow using piezoelectric materials is a relatively recent topic that has been investigated experimentally and numerically [1, 2]. Its possible application in natural water currents represents an interesting strategy to easily harvest renewable energy from ... Read More

Modeling, Simulation and Verification of Contactless Power Transfer Systems

J. Serrano [1], C. Carretero [1], J. Acero [1], I. Lope [1]
[1] University of Zaragoza, Zaragoza, Spain

This work presents the analysis of a wireless power transfer system consisting of two coupled coils and ferrite slabs acting as flux concentrators. The study makes use of Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations to predict the key performance indicators of the system such as coupling, ... Read More

Interface Phenomena for a Multifunctional Air-Water Micro-Particle Collecting and Filtering System

E. Lacatus [1], A. Tudor [1], G. C. Alecu [1],
[1] Polytechnic University of Bucharest, Romania

The confinement clean rooms used in industry are susceptible to higher count of particles per cubic meter of air after the usual work program. To decrease the economic and technological effects of particle concentration a micro-cleaning device was elaborated. A first approach of a 3D ... Read More
