Simulations for Solar
Julian Givernaud, EMIX, FranceEngineers at EMIX use numerical analysis to characterize and optimize all aspects of design for the manufacture of photovoltaic-grade silicon and photovoltaic cells, including reducing the cost of silicon wafers and improving purity for photovoltaic applications. By simulating the multiscale electromagnetic and 3D continuous casting processes, the EMIX team was able to increase the efficiency of the melting process and reduce the total number of pilot furnace tests.
Engineers at EMIX use simulation to optimize the production of photovoltaic-quality silicon wafers. This simulation is used to predict electromagnetic heating of the crucible and the corresponding phases of the molten silica.
