Item Digital Analysis of Common Turbulence Patterns in Centrifugal Pump Flow Simulation Based on COMSOL Multiphysics Software(International Journal of Heat and Technology, 2022) DEKHANE Azzeddine (Co-Auteur)The present paper tackles the convergence and performance of three numerical turbulence models in the flow simulation. The benchmark analysis was performed using the COMSOL Multiphysics code, and the turbulence on a centrifugal water pump was generated numerically using the k-š“, k-Ļ, and k-Ļ SST models. However, the geometry was conducted on SolidWorks due to its complexity. First, the flow modeling was driven by solving the stationary Navier-Stokes equations. Then, the effects of the tested models, on the numerical CFD simulation, were examined. The analyzed results demonstrated that the best calculation precision was obtained using the KāĻ model, whereas the lowest wasItem Experimental Investigation of the Combined Fault: Mechanical and Electrical Unbalances in Induction Motors Based on Stator Currents Monitoring(Instrumentation Mesure MĆ©trologie, 2022) DEKHANE Azzeddine (Co-Auteur)of induction motors separately. However, this type of machines is also susceptible to several combined faults which affect it at the same time. The aim of this work is to study firstly the effects of the mass imbalance with the supply voltage unbalance faults in a combined state, and specifically its effects on the stator currents (distortion of currents waveform and augmentation of current unbalance factor (CUF)). The findings of this research were derived from experimental tests, which enabled us to produce the combined voltage and mass imbalance fault intentionally. The second purpose of this paper is to identify these irregularities. In the field of induction motor fault diagnosis, the stator current analysis techniques have shown to be quite successful and have gained widespread use. Therefore, we used the well-known method motor current signature analysis (MCSA). In addition, we have strengthened the research by using spectral analysis on the Park's components (Id and Iq). The obtained results demonstrate the efficacy of analyzing stator currents and Park components spectra (particularly the direct Park component (Id)) for detecting this kind of electrical and mechanical combined defectsItem HIGHER ORDER DISPERSIONS EFFECT ON HIGH-ORDER SOLITON INTERACTIONS(ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING AND INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS, 2023) DEKHANE Azzeddine (Co-Auteur)The object of the research is deleting the interaction of the higher order soliton interaction by introducing the third and fourth order dispersions inside an optical fiber. The results are obtained by the simulation of the nonlinear Schr dinger equation, which models the propagation of solitons in the optical fiber using the method of Fast Fourier Transform. The interaction of two higher order solitons due to the attraction of their electric field can lead to losing the solitonsā properties. Hence, this can prevent the use of solitons in high-bit-rate optical fiber communication systems because it increases the bit error rate, significantly limiting the potential of the communication system. To resolve this problem, we should diminish the bit rate error by avoiding the interaction of the co-propagative solitons when they are too close. It is well known that, during higher order soliton propagation in the presence of the third order dispersion, the irregular shape of the higher order soliton disappears, and a splitting towards its fundamental constituents occurs after a considerable propagation. As for the fourth order, dispersion gives rise to two dispersive wave sidebands on the red or blue side. Our results reveal that bringing two higher order solitons together in the presence of the fourth order dispersion, a series of interactions between the components generated after their fission is obtained. In the third-order distribution, besides the fourth-order diffusion, the rare form and the supercontinuum generated by the fission of the higher-order solitons disappear, and we get two fundamental solitons propagating in parallel with a temporal shift and some inconsiderable dispersive waves. The most important aspect is that both higher-order dispersions are able to suppress the interactions of higher-order solitons thanks to the time shift induced by the third-order distribution and the intermittent compression caused by the fourth-order scattering. These results can be obtained in practice inside the dispersion-engineered photonic crystal waveguide (PhC-wg), which allows for manipulating the high order dispersionItem POTENTIAL DECAY SIMULATION ON INSULATING FILMS(LATVIAN JOURNAL OF PHYSICS AND TECHNICAL SCIENCES, 2022) DEKHANE Azzeddine (Co-Auteur)Surface potential decay (SPD) of a corona charged polymeric material is a powerful tool to characterise electrical properties such as charge transport, trapping/detrapping and recombina tion. Over the years, various predictive simulation techniques have been proposed to describe charge transport within the material. Despite recent progress, it appears that there have been a few attempts to theoretically interpret the nature of the charge migration on the insulation surface. The aim of the present paper is to introduce a new technique with differential evolu tion algorithm (DEA) to reveal the steady state surface potential decay experimental results. Experimental measurement was carried on a thin film of polyethylene terephthalate (thickness: 0.5 mm; surface: 50 mm x 50 mm). The domains of variation of the factors used were respec tively: 1000 V to 1800 V; 25 to 55 °C; 50 % to 80 %. The simulation results show that compu tational modelling and optimization approaches may improve the effectiveness to characterise electrical properties of polymers. More importantly, these studies demonstrate that DEA is effective and performs better than the experimental design method
