Investigating Wireless Power Transfer with Simulation
Some wireless power transfer (WPT) technologies must be oriented in a certain way to ensure proper performance. Simulation can be used to study and optimize these devices.
Exploring the Venturi Effect
The Venturi effect: As a fluid flows through a constructed area of a pipe, its velocity increases and its static pressure decreases. Learn more about this effect and its application areas.
