Modeling Conventional Swing of a Cricket Ball

R. Latchman [1], A. Pooransingh [1],
[1] University of the West Indies - St. Augustine, St. Augustine, Trinidad and Tobago

Conventional swing is one phenomenon which a bowler uses to gain an advantage over the batsman. This study involved simulating conventional swing in the CFD Module of COMSOL Multiphysics® software and comparing the simulated results with experimental results of previous researchers. The ...

Modeling of Stockton University Geothermal System Using COMSOL Multiphysics® and the Subsurface Flow Module

M. Sharobeam [1], S. Pal [1], G. Villanuna [1],
[1] School of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, Stockton University, Galloway, NJ, USA

Stockton University has one of the largest closed loop geothermal system in North America. It provides heating and cooling for the university academic facilities. The well field comprises of a grid of four hundred wells bored to a depth of 130m. The ground is composed of three aquifers ... Read More

Design and Simulation of MEMS Based Piezoelectric Insulin Micro-Pump

F. Meshkinfam [1],
[1] University of Ontario Institute of Technology, Oshawa, ON, Canada

One of the most effective treatments for diabetes type 1 and 2 is the administering Insulin. The design of positive volumetric insulin pump is significantly a multiphysics problem where the volumetric change of the main pump chamber and the pumped fluid are directly coupled. We used ... Read More

Fluid Dynamic Analysis of the Multi-Lumen Thoracic Catheter

S. Budar [1], A. Ritter [1]
[1] Department of Chemistry, Chemical Biology & Biomedical Engineering, Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, NJ, USA

In order to achieve an optimized design of the Multi-Lumen Thoracic Catheter (MLTC), fluid dynamics analyses were conducted utilizing COMSOL Multiphysics® software with LiveLink™ for Solidworks®. Lumen placement, diameters, and termination points were adjusted to ensure maximum drainage ... Read More

2D Axisymmetric Temperature Profile Modeling of a Delayed Coking Drum During Pre-Run Warm Up

P. H. A. Valenca [1], A. Waturuocha [1], K. Wisecarver [1],
[1] Russell School of Chemical Engineering, University of Tulsa, Tulsa, OK, USA

Delayed Coking is a refining process, which takes heavy petroleum residue as a feed. A 2D axisymmetric stationary model was created to simulate this pre-run condition with nitrogen gas, as an attempt to calibrate the model before simulating with an oil residue. The single-phase laminar ... Read More

Simulation of the Impedance Response of Thin Films as a Function of Film Conductivity and Thickness

Y. Jin [1], S. Kumar [1], R. A. Gerhardt [1],
[1] School of Materials Science and Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, USA

Introduction The electrical properties of materials are important in many different applications. In microelectronics for example, films must perform as insulators, semiconductor or as conducting layers. In recent years, scanning probe methods are being extended to the nanometre scale ...

Evaluation of Efficiency Factors of Commercial Thermoelectric Materials Using COMSOL Multiphysics® Software

K. Cadien [1], S. Seif [1], T. Thundat [1],
[1] Department of Chemical & Materials Engineering, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada

We have developed single leg model using COMSOL Multiphysics® software to compute Φ of TE materials without using conventional ZT parameters. The Φ were calculated using parametric programming in PDE by using special probe to capture change in power (∆P), ΔT, and area (A), thus (Φ = ∆P/A ... Read More

Simulation of Yield-Stress Fluid in a Rotational Rheometer: The Effect of Vane Geometry on the Accuracy of Measured Properties

J. Park [1], A. M. Oliva [1], N. R. Hargrave [1], D. Feys [2],
[1] Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering, Missouri University of Science & Technology, Rolla, MO, USA
[2] Department of Civil, Architectural & Environmental Engineering, Missouri University of Science & Technology, Rolla, MO, USA

A rotational rheometer for Self-Consolidating Concrete was simulated as a yield-stress fluid in a 2D geometry. The effect of the vane geometry was investigated by comparing the analytical solutions with the numerical output for flow in the coaxial cylinders. This effect was studied by ... Read More

Structural Performance of Polymeric Composite Members in a Transmission Line Tower

R. Hernandez-Corona [1], I. Ramirez-Vazquez [1],
[1] Instituto de Investigaciones Eléctricas, Transmision y Distribucion, Cuernavaca, Morelos, México

On transmission lines, the theft of redundant steel members from the transmission towers has been reported in recent years. The removal of these members from the tower can result in the collapse of the tower. An alternative to avoid this problematic is to replace some steel components ... Read More

Quantum Mechanics Applications Using the Time Dependent Schrödinger Equation in COMSOL Multiphysics® Software

A. J. Kalinowski [1],
[1] University of Connecticut, East Lyme, CT, USA

The paper illustrates the use of COMSOL for obtaining the quantum mechanics wave function Ψ(x,y,z,t) as a solution to the time dependent Schrödinger equation. Once having Ψ(x,y,z,t), it can be used to compute the probability of a particle being in a specific zone within the spatial ... Read More
