A Transient Unified Model of Arc-Weld Pool Couplings During Pulsed Spot Gas Tungsten Arc Welding

A. Traidia[1], and F. Roger[2]
[1]AREVA NP, Technical Center, Saint Marcel, France
[2]ENSTA Paristech, Paris, France

Using COMSOL Multiphysics, a finite element model is introduced in this paper to describe the couplings between the welding arc and the weld pool dynamic in pulsed gas tungsten arc welding. The cathode, arc-plasma and melting anode regions are taken into account. The unified time ... Read More

Prediction of Transformer Load Noise

M. Kavasoglu[1], R. Haettel[1], and C.H. Ploetner[2]
[1]ABB Corporate Research, Västerås, Sweden
[2]ABB Transformers, Varennes, Canada

Transformers, as any other industrial products, have to comply with various requirements on noise levels. Three main sources of noise can be identified in transformers: no-load noise or core noise generated by magnetostriction in the core steel laminations, load noise produced by ... Read More

Current Density, Electric Field and AC Loss Simulation of Mono Block and Single Layer Polygonal HTS Cable Using COMSOL Multiphysics

G. Konar[2], R. K. Mandal[1], and N. Chakraborty[2]
[1]Electrical Engineering Department, Seacom Engineering College, Dhulagar,West Bengal, India
[2]Power Engineering Department, Jadavpur University, Kolkata, West Bengal, India

High temperature super conducting (HTS) cables are gaining attentions for their ability to transmit more power compared to their convention counterparts with essentially no resistance and electromagnetic emissions. They are also appropriate for solving the grid congestion problem in the ... Read More

Enhancement of Birefringence using Metal-filled Suspended Core Microstructured Optical Fibers

Rajat Kumar Basak [1, 2], Debashri Ghosh [1]
[1] CSIR-Central Glass and Ceramic Research Institute, Kolkata, West Bengal, India
[2] Jadavpur University, Kolkata, West Bengal, India

Microstructured optical fiber (MOF) has carved out a niche in the field of photonics in the last decade. On the other hand, the field of plasmonics is also rapidly emerging as a fascinating research area. Combining the advantages of both these fields therefore seems imperative for newer ... Read More

Coupled Electromagnetics-Multiphase Porous Media Model for Microwave Combination Heating

V. Rakesh, and A. Datta
Dept. of Biological and Environmental Engineering, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA

Although microwave heating has been studied in great detail, microwave combination heating has not. This work investigated this in a novel microwave combination system that heats the sample through a combination of microwaves and hot air. The study used a coupled electromagnetics ... Read More
