Simulation of an Electrostatic Precipitator
Electrostatic precipitators are widely used in various industries to control emission levels. These are particulate collection devices that remove particles from a flowing gas using the force induced on ions. Using ElecNet with the particle trajectory tracking tool, it is possible to carry out realistic design and simulations of engineering devices such as the electrostatic precipitator.

Ion trap technology is a modern invention designed to manipulate atoms for applications in engineering and sciences such as mass spectrometry and particle accelerators. Using ElecNet, it is possible to design such devices. The Trajectory Evaluator can be used to track the trajectories of charged particles in this device. In this example, the trajectory of a charged particle entering a quadrupole ion trap is simulated.

Transient phenomena may be present in many devices containing components that are kept at a fixed voltage. Before steady state is reached, it may be necessary to model and understand the nature of the transients. Using ElecNet, it is possible to model and capture this phenomenon. Here, using a three dimensional, axis-symmetric model of a conductive shield, the transient aspect of the device is captured.

The 3D transient electric field simulation of a simple copper strip on a dielectric layer over a ground plane is described in this example. The analysis is in 3D since the copper strip is short and there is fringing of the electric field at the end of the strip.
