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
The Z-pinch (or zeta pinch) is a type of plasma confinement system used in fusion power research. It relies on an electric current discharge within the plasma to generate a magnetic field that compresses the plasma, creating conditions conducive to nuclear fusion. The concept of Z-pinch ...

In this conference we have brought together a community that is scientifically diverse in an event that allows for inspiring contacts about the use of COMSOL Multiphysics. It is an event to connect with the Spanish and Portuguese COMSOL Multiphysics users and participate in training ... Read More
One of the advantages of microwave heating of a dielectric material is the direct transfer of electromagnetic energy to the core of the dielectric through interactions between electromagnetic waves and the dielectric, without heating the surrounding elements [1]. For an industrial ... Read More
With the rapidly increasing usage of portable electronic devices and wireless communication technology, generation and propagation of electromagnetic energy are becoming one of the major concerns, not only because it affects the functionality and integrity of the electronics and their ... 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
On-chip photonic modulators designs currently use NLO material stacks such as LiNbO3 or BaTiO3 on Si or use current injection across silicon waveguides to induce phase change required for optical modulation(Li 2020)(Li 2019). The other silicon compatible option explored is silicon ... Read More
THz is an emerging technology which can be strongly utilized in the field of spectroscopy, communication, biomedical, non-destructive evaluation (NDE), food industry and many more fields [1-2]. It covers the frequency range from 0.1-10 THz [2]. At THz regime, to achieve the high output ... Read More
This Paper presents the results of a FEM simulation with Comsol Multiphysics for an Axial Flux Permanent Magnet Machine (AFPM) and compares them with analytic calculation methods (Matlab, Siemens Star-CCM Suite) as well as test bench measurements of a manufactured protype. The machine is ... Read More
The paper describes how the fluxgate current sensor works and how it is built in the COMSOL Multiphysics® software. Four COMSOL® modules were used: -AC/DC Module: the magnetic field physic is used in order to apply the Ampere-Maxwell’s law to the different sensor components and to the ... Read More
