Analysis of the Stress and Load Distribution of an Assembled Screw Including Threaded Contact
There are different possibilities to simulate a bolted joint. If only the connection of parts in an assembly with the stress distribution and surface pressure between the components without the bolt itself is of interest, the thread of the bolt is omitted and only the effect of bolted ... Read More
Benefit of Vapor Consideration for LPBF Additive Manufacturing Process Simulation
Simulation of laser processes are more and more efficient. In some cases, as welding and additive manufacturing, the physical phenomena are complex, multi-physics and multi-phases, thus some assumptions have to be done. For Laser Powder Bed Fusion, a laser beam melts and vaporizes the ... Read More
Bubble Detachment from the Surface of a (Photo)Electrode
Many (photo)electrolytic devices involve the generation of bubbles (e.g., hydrogen, oxygen). In these devices, bubble coverage on the surface of the electrode not only decreases the active area, but also induces optical loss.[1,2] Efforts in understanding the bubble detachment process ... Read More
CFD Modelling of Urban Road Tunnels
Urban road tunnels offer a promising solution to extend existing road infrastructure while mitigating air pollution and nuisances affecting nearby residential areas. By diverting traffic underground, valuable surface space becomes available to address other urban challenges. However, ... Read More
Challenges in the Simulation of Vacuum Processing Hardware
Process Hardware for heating, etching and plasma deposition in vacuum processes on Silicon wafers or glass substrates face challenging requirements due to very shallow and extended structures. Molecular Flow calculations are used to evaluate staggered shields with the aim to protect ... Read More
Combustion Resistance of Fine Metal Parts
The presence of oxygen in metal installations can influence their flammability, which leads to frequent combustion ignitions. Various studies have been done to characterize this ignition, in order to classify metals according to their degree of flammability, and to minimize the risk of ... Read More
Common Mode Choke Electromagnetic Simulation
Common mode chokes are used in electrical circuits to filter out the electromagnetic interference (EMI). The goal of this study is to simulate the impedance of the choke within a range of frequency from 0.01 MHz to 50 MHz. In this simulation model the COMSOL® AC/DC Module with magnetic ... Read More
Comparison of AEL and AEM Electrolyser Technologies
Alkaline Electrolysis (AEL) technology is known and used in industries for half a century. It is a key technology for large-scale hydrogen production powered by renewable energy for example chemical industries. Flows of 99.999% pure hydrogen up to 20’000 Nm³/h with an electrical power of ... Read More
Complete Design of a High Power Ultrasonic Flow-Cell Reactor with Special Air Cooling System
Ultrasonic flow-cell reactors are used for many industrial applications, where fluid substrate is sonicated in a small region, where very high ultrasonic acoustic power is present. The electromechanical transducer (converter) that drive the sonotrode inside the flow-cell is designed in ... Read More
Computational Modeling of Plasma Using Single-Fluid and Two-Fluid Modeling Approaches
Plasma, a complex fluid consisting of electrons, ions, neutrals, and excited species, exhibits both fluid-like behavior and electrical conductivity due to the presence of charge carriers. Consequently, computational modeling of plasma requires the integration of fluid and electrical ... Read More
