COMSOL Multiphysics has been applied to develop a model for inductive heating. A coarse, lumped model of the interior of a high temperature reactor is coupled to finite element models for the electromagnetic field, the temperature distribution outside the reactor, and mechanical stresses ...

This paper proposes the design of a 3-Degree of Freedom(DoF) motor based on surface acoustic waves in elastic solids. The rotor is propelled by wave fields, for linear and rotational motion respectively, in the stator, that can be steered by the driving signal of the piezoelectric ... Read More
Due to the inseparability of the wave equation, numerical methods are needed to develop an accurate electromagnetic model for various axisymmetric resonators such as micro-discs and micro-toroids. Our purpose is the implementation of a perfectly matched layer to determine the quality ... Read More
We study the topography influence of levees on the electric resistivity signal obtained with the Radio-Magnetotelluric method. Field measurements have been modeled with COMSOL, using the AC/DC and RF Modules. A levee situated in Orléans along the Loire river (France) has been considered ... Read More
Designing a Radio Frequency (RF) birdcage coil used in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) at high frequencies where the wavelength is comparable with the coil dimensions is a challenging task. Before construction of the coil, not only calculating the capacitance value which is necessary ... Read More
Thermal ablation driven by an acoustic heat source has tremendous potential for the treatment of diseased tissue. In many applications, such as treating tumors in the liver, bulk removal of tissue is required, and thermal ablation can reliably cause necrosis for a relatively large tissue ... Read More
A discrete model for the prediction of relative ion bombardment flux and target erosion in planar sputtering magnetrons is implemented in COMSOL Multiphysics®. Planar magnetrons are used within physical vapor deposition (PVD) processes to form thin film depositions on various types of ... Read More
This paper describes the thermal and structural combined simulation on COMSOL Multiphysics® of a Microwave (MW) Fin Taper (FT) Spatial Power Combiner (SPC) Power Amplifier (PA), based on rectangular Waveguide (WG). In the SPC based PA's, the captured power is feeded by microstrip ... Read More
电磁辐射对燃油危害是加油站、炼油厂、油气基地等大型设施禁用手机和其他无线通讯设备的重要原因。不同于静电对燃油蒸气的危害，本文的研究重点在于分析不同频率下的射频放电击穿特性。基于射频等离子体鞘层模型，通过多物理场仿真，分析了12M~300MHz频率下的氩气射频放电过程。仿真结果表明，当激励频率大于雪崩击穿临界频率时，两侧极板附近会形成随激励周期变化的鞘层区，中心区域为准电中性的等离子体区。同时，当激励频率远小于等离子体频率时，鞘层会促进极板附近的γ电离过程；随着频率增大，鞘层特性会逐渐退化，而中心区域的α电离过程会增强。此外，放电特性曲线表明，频率越高，板间放电电压越小 ...
