It has already been demonstrated that fluid models can be used to simulate two-dimensional axisymmetric inductively coupled plasma via implementation in the COMSOL (multi-physics simulation software) platform. In this study, we improved the model and simulated a large scale magnetized ... En savoir plus
Damages caused by lightning overvoltages remains to be an important issue for electrical industry, putting limitations for efficiency of transmission and distribution of electrical energy. Modern solutions for lightning protection such as multichamber arresters (MCA) for overhead ... En savoir plus
Metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) is a well-known process to produce high quality thin films that can protect, ennoble and functionalize metallic tools. To realize a high performance coating on a complex 3D mold surface, knowledge about the material formation from a ... En savoir plus
Plasma electrolytic polishing (PeP) is an electrochemical method for surface treatment. In detail PeP is a special case of anodic dissolution [1] that unlike electrochemical polishing requires higher voltage and uses environment friendly aqueous solutions of salts. When the process ...

Plasma gasification of biomass is emerging as an efficient way to reduce the carbon foot print of waste management while generating renewable energy. In general, gasification is a process where electromagnetic wave energy is used to heat biomass sufficiently to convert the bio-mass to ... En savoir plus
The Helicon Injected Inertial Plasma Electrostatic Rocket (HIIPER) is an electric space propulsion concept to generate denser ion and electron beams using inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) fusion theory and helicon source. Helicon source is employed to generate the plasma and the ... En savoir plus
The radio-frequency(RF) plasma sources have shown great potential in various industrial applications such as thin coatings deposition and polymers modification[1,2]. Physics of low pressure RF plasmas has been investigated significantly[3]; however, this kind of plasma source is rarely ... En savoir plus
Today’s driver hardware for High-intensity discharge (HID) lamps is bulky, expensive and not particularly energy-efficient. A downscaling of the devices seems possible by increasing the operation frequency from typically 400 Hz to some hundred kilohertz. However, efforts to design high ... En savoir plus
The knowledge of the behavior of electric arcs between plane electrodes is in high interest due to their presence in industrial applications such as low voltage circuit breakers. In this contribution, numerical simulations of an electric arc displacement due to electro-magnetic forces ... En savoir plus
Line lightning protection devices (LLPD) nowadays are widely used for lightning protection of overhead power lines. LLPD is composed of electrodes in series embedded in silicone rubber which all together forms sequence of spark gaps. When lightning overvoltage is applied it causes ... En savoir plus
