The Tokamak à configuration variable (TCV) features the highest electron cyclotron wave power density available to resonantly heat (ECRH) the electrons and to drive noninductive currents in a fusion grade plasma (ECCD). In more than 15 years of exploitatio ...
The magnetic field of the permanent magnet electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion source SWISSCASE located at the University of Bern has been numerically simulated and experimentally investigated. For the first time the magnetized volume qualified for elec ...
Three-dimensional fluid simulations are performed in a simple magnetized toroidal plasma, in which vertical and toroidal magnetic fields create helicoidal magnetic field lines that terminate on the torus vessel. The simulations are carried out in the three ...
The design, modeling, fabrication, and characterization of solid propellant microthrusters for space application is presented. The operational concept of solid propellant thruster is simply based on the combustion of a solid energetic material stored in a ...
Numerical simulations of electron temperature gradient (ETG) turbulence are presented that characterize the ETG fluctuation spectrum, establish limits to the validity of the adiabatic ion model often employed in studying ETG turbulence, and support the ten ...
This thesis deals with the numerical modeling and simulation of granular media with large populations of non-spherical particles. Granular media are highly pervasive in nature and play an important role in technology. They are present in fields as diverse ...
This paper presents a numerical simulation of the flow field on a one-dimensional pneumatic actuator. Unlike conventional actuators, this model uses dynamic pressure instead of friction to drive a slider. The objective of this simulation is to know the det ...
We have carried out an ab initio molecular dynamics simulation of liquid oxygen, a molecular fluid in which the individual 02 units carry a molecular magnetic moment. In addition to the atomic and electronic structures, our simulation describes the evoluti ...
An analytical approach allowing modelling transient phenomena in pipes, valves, surge tank and Francis turbines based on impedance method is developed. These models are introduced in a software called “SIMSEN”, which simulates the behaviour of complex appl ...
The LCI (Load commutated Inverter) is still today a suitable solution for supplying high power variable speed drive systems. The following main topics are described in this contribution: The modeling of a 20 MW LCI synchronous drive system for a compressio ...
