Due to the potential benefits resulting from the use of a phase order higher than three in transmission, some interest has also grown in the area of multi-phase machine. For machine drive applications, multi-phase system could potentially meet the demand for high power electric drive systems, which are both rugged and energy-efficient. High phase number drives possess several advantages over co...

To establish a protocol for a multi-phase computed tomography (CT) of the canine pancreas using the bolus-tracking technique, dynamic scan and multi-phase CT were performed in six normal beagle dogs. The dynamic scan was performed for 60 sec at 1-sec intervals after the injection (4 ml/sec) of a contrast medium, and intervals from aortic enhancement appearance to aortic, pancreatic parenchymal ...

a numerical framework has been proposed to model the interacting effects of mixture non-ideality and mass transfer on hydrodynamics of a multiphase system using cfd methods.mass transfer during condensation and vaporization is modeled by chemical potential at the liquid-vapor interface. species mass transfers are related to the diffusion at the interface which in turn is related to the concentr...

An alternative phase-field model is presented for the simulation of microstructure evolution in polycrystalline materials existing of multiple phases and components. The model is able to treat concurrently phase transformations, diffusion controlled coarsening (Ostwald ripening) and grain growth. The equilibrium phase fractions and compositions are introduced using appropriate thermodynamic Gib...
