In this paper, the design and development of a novel Fast-Field Cycling (FFC) Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) relaxometer’s electromagnet is described. This magnet is tailored to increase the relaxometers’s usability, by increasing its portability capacities. It presents a compact toroidal shaped iron core, allowing to operate in a field range of 0 to 0.21 T, with high field homogeneity (less than 800 ppm in a volume of ≈ 0.57 cm3 ), low power consumption and reduced losses (about 40W). The simulation software COMSOL Multiphysics® is used to characterize the induced magnetic field, the heating and the cooling effects. The proposed optimized layout constitutes an innovative solution for FFC magnets.

AbstractOptically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) based on alkali-atom vapors are ultra-sensitive devices for dc and low-frequency ac magnetic measurements. Here, in combination with fast-field-cycling hardware and high-resolution spectroscopic detection, we demonstrate applicability of OPMs in quantifying nuclear magnetic relaxation phenomena. Relaxation rate dispersion across the nT to mT field range enables quantitative investigation of extremely slow molecular motion correlations in the liquid state, with time constants > 1 ms, and insight into the corresponding relaxation mechanisms. The 10-20 fT/$$\sqrt{{\rm{H}}}{\rm{z}}$$ H z sensitivity of an OPM between 10 Hz and 5.5 kHz 1H Larmor frequency suffices to detect magnetic resonance signals from ~ 0.1 mL liquid volumes imbibed in simple mesoporous materials, or inside metal tubing, following nuclear spin prepolarization adjacent to the OPM. High-resolution spectroscopic detection can resolve inter-nucleus spin-spin couplings, further widening the scope of application to chemical systems. Expected limits of the technique regarding measurement of relaxation rates above 100 s−1 are discussed.

Natural convection of a magneto hydrodynamic nanofluid in a porous cavity in the presence of a magnetic field is investigated. The two vertical side walls are held isothermally at temperatures Th and Tc, while the horizontal walls of the outer cone are adiabatic. The governing equations obtained with the Boussinesq approximation are solved using Comsol Multiphysics finite element analysis and simulation software. Impact of Rayleigh number (Ra), Hartmann number (Ha) and nanofluid volume fraction (ϕ) are depicted. Results indicated that temperature gradient increases considerably with enhance of Ra and ϕ but it reduces with increases of Ha.

This paper analyses the behaviour ofpiezoelectric transducer for harvesting energy. The transducer was designedusing different materials for harnessing energy that include Zinc Oxide, LeadZirconate Titanate (PZT-2) and Quartz. The transducer was simulated using thesematerials and the voltage generated from ambient vibrations was analysed. MEMsmodule of COMSOL Multiphysics Simulation software was used to perform thesimulations. Behaviour of different materials towards various frequencies madeknown in this study gives an opportunity to estimate the fabricated device and alsosheds light on prospective applications it fits.
