Plate fin heat exchangers are widely used for heat recovery or cooling purposes in many industries, such as cryogenics, aerospace and automobile industries. This paper developed a numerical model to simulate the heat transfer and fluid flow in a counter flow plate fin heat exchanger and ... Read More
One of the challenges associated with the wire-arc additive manufacture (WAAM) of metals is to provide adequate inert gas shielding, not only for the molten pool, but also for the long reactive metal surface that follows it. For Ti-6Al-4V, it has been shown that increased levels of ... Read More
Digestion is the process of breaking down food into smaller components, by mechanical and enzymatic action in the digestive tract, so that the smaller nutrient molecules can be more easily absorbed in the intestinal tract. To study and analyze the human digestive process, different ... Read More
We report a numerical study on the blood – magnetic carrier aggregate flow in an external magnetic field, for applications such as magnetic drug targeting. The arterial system morphology is complex and patient-related therefore more realistic numerical simulations request medical image ... Read More
A flow and transport model in porous media was implemented in COMSOL Multiphysics® software to simulate, analyze and interpret Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR) processes at core scale under laboratory conditions. The flow model is biphasic and is based on the oil phase pressure ... Read More
The use of microwaves for heating purposes of dielectric materials is encountered in many industrial applications (food processing, chemistry, material engineering and medical applications). In most of these thermal applications, the prediction of the temperature evolution within the ... Read More
This paper presents the 3D model of pressure distribution in the process of magneto-rheological flow finishing. The effect of working gap on pressure distribution is studied using COMSOL Multiphysics® software. Also, the effect of different viscosity of fluids on development of pressure ... Read More
The paper presents a method of extraction of coupling of modes (COM) parameters for a one port surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonator from the results of finite element analysis in COMSOL Multiphysics®. The COM parameters calculated are electromechanical coupling coefficient, reflection ... Read More
Introduction: The use of microwave energy for thermal cracking (from thermal stress and water pore pressure) of lignite-coal briquettes increases the lignite friability [1] and is beneficial for later chemical treatment inside a gasifier (for methanol production for example). An ... Read More
Crack detection is and has been an active field of exploration, both theoretical and applied for a number of years. It is the belief of this author that the concepts presented herein explore a new methodology for the modeling and the detection of cracks and families of cracks in ... Read More
