Induction heating is used in lot of applications: forging, brazing, hardening, melting, bonding. The main advantage is ability to heat quickly, efficiently, and locally with a good repeatability. It leads to productivity and energy efficiency improvement. These solutions are often used ... Mehr lesen

This paper presents the study of the simulation of mixed-mode S-parameter using COMSOL Multiphysics® RF Module. In addition, a COMSOL® application is also developed for the study of electrical connectors. We are interested in modeling electrical connectors used for data transmission ... Mehr lesen

The vacuum arc remelting is a refining process used to melt reactive metals like titanium, zirconium or hafnium. Melting is performed under vacuum to avoid reactions between liquid metal and oxygen which could be a source of pollution. This process is particularly well suited to purify ... Mehr lesen

Resistance-sintering can be used in a powder metallurgy process as the heating step to consolidate a metallic compact previously obtained by pressing a powder-alloy. This fast-sintering process consolidates electrically conductive powders by simultaneous application of pressure and ... Mehr lesen

Temperature of sesame paste flowing through a screw-expeller was studied. Screw-expeller used consisted of a rotating tapered screw and a constant-inner-diameter stationary barrel. Since screw diameter was much larger than the sesame paste thickness, an unwrapped model was employed with ... Mehr lesen

Microreactors have been used for renewable fuel production due to benefits such as, enhanced mass transfer, improved heat transfer and larger surface-area-to-volume ratios. The steam reforming of methanol over a CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 based catalyst (BASF F3-01) is investigated using 2-D packed ... Mehr lesen

In this paper, a numerical study is conducted on the melting and solidification process of metal foam/paraffin wax with cyclic heating and cooling. A mathematical model based on the Brinkman-Frochheimer extended Darcy equation and the local thermal non-equilibrium model (LTNE) is ... Mehr lesen

Periodical architected structures comprising reticulated beams or trusses have proven capable of controlling wave propagation at different frequency scales. Moreover, recent progress in 3D printing techniques has paved the way to their actionable application in various fields, i.e., ... Mehr lesen

Femtosecond laser are now a regular tool of the modern ophtalmic surgeon, for instance in cataract surgery by enabling precise cut of the cristalline lens tissue before removal. As femtosecond laser tissue interaction is highly dependant of the energy spatial density, a simplified model ... Mehr lesen

Peristaltic pumps are used during pharmaceutical manufacturing processes, for filling, filtration and mixing operations. Goal of this work was to develop a computational model of a peristaltic pump used for filling operations, to predict shear stresses and mass flow rates. For this ... Mehr lesen
