Computing Voltages Produced by Electromagnetic Induction
Have you ever used a “shaker flashlight”? It’s powered by voltage from the electromagnetic induction that occurs when a powerful permanent magnet inside the device oscillates due to the shaking.
POWER Prevents Corona Discharge in Power Lines
POWER Engineers, a global engineering consulting firm, used multiphysics simulation to study if and where corona discharge occurs in power lines and their associated assemblies.
Simulating the Focusing Effect of Magnetic Quadrupoles
What’s a magnetic quadrupole lens? How do they work? How do you simulate their focusing effect? We answer these questions and more in this blog post…
Powerful Packaging for Electronics in Extreme Environments
U.S.-based Arkansas Power Electronics International is designing power packaging for improved thermal management in power electronics devices, increased efficiency, and lower costs.
Solving TEAM Problem 7 with the AC/DC Module
