In the nuclear industry, and particularly at Framatome, mastery of welding processes is essential. Framatome is one of the world leaders in this field and wants to improve even more. The work presented focuses on improving the TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding process, and more ... Read More
For reheating steel slabs in the steel industry fossil energy like natural gas or oil-based fuels is commonly used. Induction heating is one possible way on the transition towards a carbon free steel industry. To support the industries ambition to change from furnaces with fossil energy ... Read More
Induction heating (IH) [1] is an electrically driven process useful for decarbonization of the industry. It can be used for electrification of chemical processes to replace traditional heating with gas burner and avoid CO2 emission. This kind of process can be used to heat efficiently ... Read More
Currently, there are a number of promising applications of electromagnetic fields in medical diagnosis and therapy. Some, such as non-invasive monitoring of blood glucose concentration in patients with diabetes or temperature monitoring during hyperthermia, are in the phase of ... Read More
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are electromagnetic waves that travel along a metal–dielectric or metal–air interface, practically in the infrared or visible-frequency. The term "surface plasmon polariton" explains that the wave involves both charge motion in the metal ("surface ... Read More
Nowadays, surge protection devices are widely used in electrical grids to suppress over voltages during transient conditions caused by voltage surges and to prevent damages of industrial or household devices. The working principle is based on the initiation of an arc with a burning ... Read More
The rotating permanent magnet heater is an high efficient system for the electromagnetic heating of Aluminium billet bifore the extrusion process. In the paper will explained how to modeling with COMSOL Multiphysics® the system form the electromagnetic point of view using the ACDC ... Read More
In recent years, the optimization of high-temperature superconductors (HTS) has shown promising potential for developing advanced cable layouts aimed at the realization of practical fusion reactors. Despite their excellent performance in terms of electromagnetic and mechanical stability, ... Read More
The following set of COMSOL® simulations were a vital part of a multi-year-long research project about magnetically levitated hoverboards. A hoverboard can be seen as a small skateboard, that uses magnetic a set of hover-thrusters instead of wheels. A total of nine working prototype ... Read More
Simulation of thermal and electrical contact resistance of welding torch nozzles In modern engineering and scientific research, accurate modeling of contact resistances, both electrical and thermal, plays a crucial role in the design and analysis of technical systems. Our project ... Read More
