An MHD Study of the Behavior of an Electrolyte Solution Using 3D Numerical Simulation

L. P. Aoki[1], H. E. Schulz[1], M. G. Maunsell[1]
[1]University of São Paulo, São Carlos, SP, Brazil

This article considers a closed water circuit with square cross section filled with an electrolyte fluid. The conductor fluid was moved using an electromagnetic pump, in which a permanent magnet generates a magnetic field and electrodes generate the electric field in the flow. Thus, the ... Read More

Finite Element Analysis of Photoacoustic Response from Gold Nanoparticle

Y. Davletshin[1], J. C. Kumaradas[1]
[1]Ryerson University, Toronto, ON, Canada

Photoacoustic (PA) imaging has matured into a clinical modality for tissue imaging and functional cancer cell research. It uses a pulsed laser to irradiate a region and generate a thermally-induced acoustic pressure wave that can be collected by an ultrasound transducer. The optical ... Read More

Electric Field Distributions and Energy Transfer in Waveguide-Based Axial-Type Microwave Plasma Source

H. Nowakowska[1], M. Jasínski[1], and J. Mizeraczyk[1,2]
[1]The Szewalski Institute of Fluid-Flow Machinery, Polish Academy of Sciences, Gdansk, Poland
[2]Dept. of Marine Electronics, Gdynia Maritime University, Gdynia, Poland

In this paper, we examine changes of the electric field distributions in waveguide-based axial-type microwave plasma source (MPS) during tuning procedure. The distributions strongly depend on position of the movable short, so does the wave reflection coefficient of the incident wave. A ... Read More

Time-Harmonic Modeling of Squirrel-Cage Induction Motors: A Circuit-Field Coupled Approach

R. Escarela-Perez[1], E. Melgoza[2], and E. Campero-Littlewood[1]

[1]Universidad Autonoma Metropolitana - Azcapotzalco, Departamento de Energia, México, D.F., Mexico
[2]Instituto Tecnologico de Morelia, Morelia, Mich., C.P., Mexico

Finite element modeling of three-phase induction machines requires the solution of coupled circuit and field equations. This work aims to solve this problem using a strong coupling approach. This work includes circuit field coupling and proper air-gap meshing, using the AC/DC Module of ... Read More

Plasmonic Scattering Structures for Improved Performance of Thin Film Solar Cells

M. Vijayalakshmi [1], R. Divya [1], R. C. Thiagarajan [1],
[1] ATOA Scientific Technologies Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore, India

Solar Photovoltaics is an alternate green energy source to the depleting fossil fuel technologies. Solar energy cost needs to be reduced significantly for competitiveness and proliferation in residential solar. Thin film photovoltaics is a promising technology for the growth of solar ... Read More

First Approach Toward a Modeling of the Impedance Spectroscopic Behavior of Microbial Living Cells

D. Rauly [1], P. Xavier [1], E. Chamberod [2], J. M. F. Martins [3], J. Angelidis [4], H. Belbachir [5]
[1] IMEP-LAHC, Universite Grenoble Alpes, France
[2] IUT, Universite Grenoble Alpes, France
[3] LTHE, Grenoble Alps University - CNRS - IRD, France
[4] LEAS, St. Ismier, France
[5] HBA Biotech SA, Grenoble, France

The subject of the interactions between electromagnetic (EM) fields and living cells is a strong issue for several decades [1]. Large number of works have been done to study the EM field penetration and inner induced currents in living microorganisms. Relevant information to be collected ... Read More

Electrohydrodynamic Micropump Modeling for Performance Optimization

A. Mulye[1], S. Potnis[2]
[1]Northeastern University, Boston, MA, USA
[2]VIT, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

We present an optimized and efficient design of an electrohydrodynamic (EHD) micropump for high performance in microscale and biological applications. We are targeting two major applications, a parylene C design for electrically-actuated medicine delivery, and a silicon-based pump design ... Read More

Accuracy of Fully Coupled Loudspeaker Simulation Using COMSOL

M. Hedges[1][2] and Y.W. Lam[1]
[1]Acoustics Research Centre, School of Computing, Science & Engineering, University of Salford, Salford, United Kingdom
[2]Monitor Audio Ltd., Rayleigh, Essex, United Kingdom

Loudspeaker simulation is used to inform the designer as to the performance of a design. In recent years the Finite Element Method (FEM) has been used to model the mechanical and acoustical attributes of a loudspeaker with varying success. This paper shows how a model that incorporates ... Read More

High Frequency Magnetohydrodynamic Calculations in COMSOL

N. Kleinknecht, and S. A. Halvorsen
Teknova AS
Kristiansand, Norway

In many metallurgical processes metals are (heated and) stirred by an oscillating external magnetic field. The magnetic field induces electric currents in the metal and the currents interact with the magnetic field to create a force, the Lorentz force. For high frequencies induction only ... Read More
