Abstract Industrial processes often involve rotating machinery that generates substantial kinetic energy, much of which remains untapped. Harvesting rotational kinetic energy offers a promising solution to reduce energy waste and improve energy efficiency in industrial applications. This research investigates the potential of electromagnetic induction for harvesting rotational kinetic energy from industrial machinery. A comparative study was conducted between disk and cylinder-shaped rotational bodies to evaluate their energy efficiency under various load conditions. Experimental results demonstrated that the disk body exhibited higher energy efficiency, primarily due to lower mechanical losses compared to the cylinder body. A power… More >

Abstract Electrical energy can be harvested from the rotational kinetic energy of moving bodies, consisting of both mechanical and kinetic energy as a potential power source through electromagnetic induction, similar to wind energy applications. In industries, rotational bodies are commonly present in operations, yet this kinetic energy remains untapped. This research explores the energy generation characteristics of two rotational body types, disk-shaped and cylinder-shaped under specific experimental setups. The hardware setup included a direct current (DC) motor driver, power supply, DC generator, mechanical support, and load resistance, while the software setup involved automation testing tools and… More >

Abstract In the non-conventional media like underwater and underground, the Radio Frequency (RF) communication technique does not perform well due to large antenna size requirement and high path loss. In such media, magnetic induction (MI) communication technique is very promising due to small coil size and constant channel behavior. Unlike the RF technique, the communication range in MI technique is relatively less. To enhance this range, a waveguide technique is already brought in practice. This technique employs single layer coils to enhance the performance of MI waveguide. To further enhance the system functioning, in this paper,… More >

Abstract In this study, magnetic abrasives were obtained by crushing and sieving sintered iron-silicon carbide (Fe-SiC) composites. Fe and SiC powders with different mesh numbers were pre-compacted using different pressures and then sintered at various temperatures and with different holding times. The dispersion uniformity of the SiC powder was improved through surface modification using polyethylene glycol (PEG) 300. The resulting magnetic abrasives were characterized in terms of phase composition, density, relative permeability, and microstructure; this was followed by a comprehensive analysis to reveal the optimal processing parameters. The ideal combination of process parameters for preparing SiC More >

Abstract Detection of cracks is a great concern in production and operation processes of graphene based devices to ensure uniform quality. Here, we show a detection method for graphene cracks by electromagnetic induction. The time varying magnetic field leads to induced voltage signals on graphene, and the signals are detected by a voltmeter. The measured level of induced voltage is correlated with the number of cracks in graphene positively. The correlation is attributed to the increasing inductive characteristic of defective graphene, and it is verified by electromagnetic simulation and radio frequency analysis. Furthermore, we demonstrate that More >

Abstract This study proposes the dual reciprocity boundary element (DRBEM) solution for full magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations in a lid-driven square cavity. MHD equations are coupled with the heat transfer equation by means of the Boussinesq approximation. Induced magnetic field is also taken into consideration. The governing equations in terms of stream function, temperature, induced magnetic field components, and vorticity are solved employing DRBEM in space together with the implicit backward Euler formula for the time derivatives. The use of DRBEM with linear boundary elements which is a boundary discretization method enables one to obtain small sized… More >

Abstract Magnetic induction hyperthermia is one of hopeful methods for tumor therapy. In this method, several ferromagnetic seeds are needed to be implanted into the tumor. The seeds would produce energy, and cause the nearby tumor to die. Temperature prediction is significant before treatment. In addition, in clinical treatment, the tumor temperature has to be monitored in realtime. However, using as few thermometers as possible is the basic principle. Fortunately, the numerical simulation can contribute to realtime measurement. The seed temperature is modeled based on the Haider's method, which is treated as the thermal boundary in More >
