Solenoid valves control fluid flow by using the passage of an electric current to produce a magnetic field that controls the displacement of a pre-tensioned plunger. As the electric current increases, the induced force causes the plunger to move upward against the force exerted by a ... 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
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
Characterization of particles has numerous applications in science and diagnostics. Recently, particle passage through constrained microchannels has been proposed to characterize particles based on their passage velocity. Nevertheless, there is no clear understanding of how the physics ... 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
Designers of electro-optic modulators and related devices often use separate tools to study the optical and electrical portions of the device. The flexibility of COMSOL Multiphysics makes it possible to construct unified models of EO phenomena including realistic waveguide profiles and ... Read More
YBCO Coated Conductors (CCs), used for applications in Resistive Superconducting Fault Current Limiters (RSFCLs), are known to have insufficiently high Normal Zone Propagation Velocity (NZPV) during quench events. The improvement can be made by enhancing the thermal conductivity of YBCO ... Read More
Combustion instability in solid rocket motors and liquid engines has long been a subject of concern. Recent advances in energy based modeling of combustion instabilities require accurate determination of acoustic frequencies and mode-shapes. Of particular interest is the acoustic mean ... 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
