Fuel cells (FCs) are promising as an energy producing device, which at this stage of development will require extensive analysis and benefit from numerical modeling at different time- and length scales. COMSOL Multiphysics® is used to describe an intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel ... Read More
The maintenance plan or rush-to-repair of a subsea pipeline for oil transport may result in the shutdown of the line, in other words, may stop the flow of fluid. During the shutdown, the temperature of the oil tends to decrease continuously, and the heavy molecules tend to crystallize ... Read More
The radio-frequency(RF) plasma sources have shown great potential in various industrial applications such as thin coatings deposition and polymers modification[1,2]. Physics of low pressure RF plasmas has been investigated significantly[3]; however, this kind of plasma source is rarely ... Read More
The Multiphysics design of a 130 GHz klystron Buncher cavity is described in this paper. In this high frequency range, dimensions are critical and expose the device to multiple physics effects, due to the power dissipations, affecting the electromagnetic performances. The proposed device ... Read More
In this paper, a free membrane is used as a receiver to increase the capacitance and therefore the resolution of the flow meter. For the current application, from the wavelength of sound wave in soft tissue (c= 1540 m/s) the resolution was calculated to be 0.48 mm. This gives the first ... Read More
Single-phase fluid flow was simulated passing through various three dimensional pipe elbows. The simulations varied by Reynolds number, curvature ratios, and sweep angles and were all conducted using the k-ε model available in COMSOL Multiphysics® software. The intent of this research ... Read More
Recently, acoustic black holes (ABH), a new passive structural modification approach to control vibration and noise from mechanical structures have been developed and studied. This preliminary study presents the work on the influence of acoustical black holes on the vibration and sound ... Read More
Recent developments (1) in thermal metamaterials that enhance the response of thermoelectric generators (TEG) have revived the interest in TEG research. The COMSOL Multiphysics® software offers the unique opportunity to model TEGs with various cooling systems (air, water, etc) and ... Read More
Verifying that a local software installation performs as the developer intended is a potentially time consuming but necessary step for safety related codes. Automating this process not only saves time, but can increase reliability and scope of verification compared to ‘hand’ comparisons. ... Read More
Zinc Oxide (ZnO) was chosen as the piezoelectric material. A multi – d31 mode cantilever design was used, with varying dimensions of cantilever, to form an array. The individual cantilevers can be either connected in series or in parallel to achieve different output characteristics. ... Read More
