Multi-field coupled numerical simulation of volume conduction energy transfer

The research on volume conductive model can be used in designing the conductive systems and optimizing the energy transfer parameters. By considering the coupling of circuit, electromagnetic-field and temperature-field, a 3-D multi-filed coupling model is developed. On the circuit level, the simulation of volume conduction, real-time monitoring for the temperature of skin tissue are achieved, which provides direct theoretical guidance for energy transfer optimization design. With the software FEM 3.5, a volume conduct multi-field coupling model is built to verify the feasibility of volume conduction, which also lays foundation for further optimize energy transfer efficiency.     

Energy delivery model for implanted devices

FEMlab3.3(Finite Element Model Lab) is used to develop an energy delivery model for implanted devices. We designed three different shape electrodes made of Ag to enhance current transmitting efficiency. Several voltages were used for pursuing perfect goal. With the body safety current, we can get the results with a current transmitting efficiency of 20% and the energy delivery efficiency of 4%~9%. It is clear that the high energy delivery efficiency can be obtained and the results provide references for further study of energy delivery through body conduction.

Improvement of Method in BIN Building Energy Consumption Calculation

The proportion of radiation load through glass windows in building energy analysis is comparatively great;it is regarded as linear relation with temperature in BIN method,which is extremely a rough method.It is not only because the relation between such radiation load and temperature is far from linear relationship,but also there is lack of objective standard for the selection of corresponding representative temperature to the load.To solve this problem,calculating the maximum factor D_(J max) firstly,then get the hourly corresponding relation of load and temperature by multiplying the hourly cool load coefficient.The practical relation of load and temperature could be obtained by counting up the average load to each temperature at each direction;the load calculation method is still simple using a series of statistic data.A comparison has been made between this method and the former one.As it is the real reflection of relation between the temperature and load,the precision of load calculation is enhanced.The process using this method to calculate load for south facing window in Chengdu is given in this paper.     

A Study Transient on Predictive Calculation Method of on Underground Ventilation Network

The authors developed a computer program of transient predictive calculation method on underground ventilation network. The program approximated a field data set of seasonal cyclic changes of air Temperature and humidity at the inlet to the sine curves, and included sensible heat conduction from rock to air current. The temperature of rock around and airway was calculated by finite difference method. The prediction method can be used to calculate the variation of flow rates, temperatures and humidities of air flow in the airways along underground network.
