3D Magnetostatic Analysis of Magneto-Inductive Devices for NDT

Fri, 29 Jan 2010 13:19:22 GMT

This work presents the 3D magnetostatic numerical analysis based on Finite Integration Technique applied to the design of magneto-inductive devices for the Non Destructive Testing (NDT) of ferromagnetic ropes. The problem is characterised by several design aspects and by the high saturation level reached in the device core and in the rope under testing. CST EM STUDIO® was used for the virtual prototyping which entailed the the optimisation of permanent dimensions using 3D non-linear magnetostatic optimisation. Measured versus simulated results are presented.

A 3-Phase Tubular Permanent Magnet Linear Generator for Marine Applications

Fri, 29 Jan 2010 11:10:23 GMT

This article is concerned with the application of CST EMS to the design and analysis of a tubular permanent magnet linear generator. Demonstrated is the proposal of a possible application of tubular generator, the analysis of a system definition in order to define a first optimization criteria and 3D electromagnetic simulation based on finite inegration method to carry out a parametric analysis of the machine behavior. This is a summary of the work carried out by Andrea Pirisi, G. Gruosso, Riccardo E. Zich of the Politecnico di Milano, Italy.

Plasmonic Nano Antennas Simulation with CST MICROWAVE STUDIO®

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 17:37:47 GMT

This paper is based on: "Comparison of electromagnetic field solvers for the 3D analysis of plasmonic nano antennas" by Johannes Hoffmann, Christian Hafner, Patrick Leidenberger, Jan Hesselbarth, Sven Burger, Proc. SPIE Vol. 7390, pp. 73900J-73900J-11. The Field Distribution inside a 1 nm wide gap between two 80 nm diameter Gold spheres is calculated and compared to a semi analytical reference solution published in the paper. Both general purpose solvers of CST MICROWAVE STUDIO® are used. The simulation results agree closely with the reference solution.

Development of VHF Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) Source

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 19:17:32 GMT

In this presentation CST MICROWAE STUDIO was used for plasma uniformity prediction through the E/H-field and power loss distribution. The plasma source S-parameter are analysed and the impedance-matching-network for different antenna is designed. Finally a high-frequency & large-area plasma source is analysed.
