Eddy currents are circulating currents induced within conductors when they experience a changing magnetic field. These currents arise due to electromagnetic induction, following Faraday’s Law, and are opposed by Lenz’s Law, which states that the induced current will flow in a direction that opposes the change causing it. This phenomenon is particularly significant in electrical […]
Thermoelectric modeling involves simulating the direct conversion of heat energy into electrical energy (and vice versa) using numerical methods like Finite Element Analysis (FEA). This approach enables engineers and researchers to design, optimize, and validate thermoelectric devices such as thermoelectric generators (TEGs), Peltier coolers, and energy harvesting systems. FEA helps in solving complex multi-physics interactions […]
