The problem under investigation is electrical scale-up of a generic metallurgical process for primary metal production through resistive heating of slag by electric current, typically supplied by an AC three-phase system. Maxwell’s equations are analyzed revealing that the properties of ... Read More
We show that COMSOL Multiphysics® software can efficiently simulate the diffusion equation (DE) in diffusive optical tomography systems. Using our implementation, we simulate a frequency domain diffusive optical tomography system two order of magnitude faster than the standard Monte ... Read More
Magnetic nanoparticles have diverse applications ranging from contamination control to medical diagnosis and treatment. Small airborne particulate matter (PM) is known to have adverse impacts to human health,, due to its high mobility when penetrating human respiratory systems [1,2,3]. ... Read More
Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF) use graphite electrodes to strike an arc to melt scrap steel, recycling it for further use. These graphite electrodes oxidize and are consumed over time. To maintain operation new electrodes are attached to others via a joint of complex geometry and fed ... Read More
A pulsed Eddy Current (EC) probe, using the transient response to a stepped voltage is being developed for in-reactor inspection of CANDU® fuel channels. Pulsed EC has the advantage of generating a spectrum of discrete frequencies, allowing the simultaneous collection of data from a ... Read More
In this work, we design a type of meta-prism which can provide high-efficiency coupling between free space and optical waveguides at infrared frequencies. The meta-prism is composed of an ABA multilayer structure with a fixed total thickness. By varying the filling ratio of the ... Read More
A new microwave cavity for the regeneration of DPF regeneration was proposed and COMSOL Multiphysics® FEM model was used to investigate heating properties of the Silicon Carbide (SiC) based DPF. Electric field profile and thermal profile of the microwave cavity and DPF was established ... Read More
This paper deals with the simulation and analysis of SAR and temperature distribution induced by a Planar Inverted-F Antenna on human head model using COMSOL Multiphysics® software. The goal of this paper is to compare the SAR and temperature distributions of omni-directional PIFA with ... Read More
The thermal performance of the dry type power transformers is directly connected to the internal heat source caused by electrical losses. Thus, it is necessary to evaluate the temperatures reached by the transformer core to ensure optimum operation. This paper presents a detailed ... Read More
A wide variety of near-field optical phenomena such as apertureless near-field scanning microscopy (ANSM) at optical and terahertz (THz) regimes and surface enhanced Raman scattering relies on the electric field enhancement at the end of a sharp tip. Achieving and controlling this ... Read More
