Electric and thermal field effects in tissue around radiofrequency electrodes.
OBJECTIVE A study is carried out of the spatial distribution and time dependence of electric and thermal fields in the tissue around a radiofrequency (RF) electrode used in pain therapy. Finite-element calculation of the fields is performed, and results are compared with ex vivo tissue data. Field predictions are made for continuous and for pulsed RF applications. DESIGN A special RF cannula ...
متن کاملThermal Field Around a Circular Cylinder with Periodic Vortex Shedding
A numerical study is carried out to investigate the laminar forced convection heat transfer from a circular cylinder. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible, the Reynolds number ranged from 0.1 to 1000, and the Prandtl number was equal to 0.7. The range of study includes heat transfer in creeping flow (Re40). The equations were discretized by a control-volume-based finite difference techniqu...
متن کاملExperimental Study of Heat Transfer around a Cylinder in Presence of Electric Field
In this paper, effects of EHD actuators on hydrodynamic behavior and heat transfer of air flow over a circular cylinder were considered. Pressure and temperature distributions around the cylinder were measured in presence of wire-plate EHD actuators. The Reynolds number based on cylinder diameter (d) were 3500, 7000. Experiments were performed for various configurations. Based on obtained resul...
متن کاملMobility and transverse electric field effects in channel conduction of wrap-around-gate nanowire MOSFETs
The current conduction process through a nanowire wrap-around-gate,B50nm channel diameter, silicon MOSFET has been investigated and compared with a B2mm wide slab, B200nm thick silicon (SOI) top-only-gate planarMOSFETwith otherwise similar doping profiles, gate length and gate oxide thickness. The experimental characteristics of the nanowire and planar MOSFETs were compared with theoretical sim...
متن کاملElectric Field Density Distribution for Cochlear Implant Electrodes
Microelectrode array of the Cochlear Implants (CI’s) is an important component of the device which performs a key function in restoring the hearing process to the deaf patients. CI’s are available with different variants in the market with different design of the Electrode array. Due to the importance of Electrode array in CI it’s also been researched looking for ways to microfabricate in diffe...
