Multiscale Reactors: Cleaning the Flows

November 3, 2014

Packed bed reactors are used in chemical synthesis and for effluent treatment and catalytic combustion, are often required for heterogeneous catalysis, and commonly include catalyst pellets.

Using Slice Plots to Show Results on Cross-Sectional Surfaces

October 29, 2014

In this installment of our blog series on postprocessing your simulation results, we demonstrate slice plots, an easy way to visualize physics behavior on many different parts of your model.

Ion Temperature in Inductively Coupled Plasmas (ICPs)

October 22, 2014

When modeling plasmas, your choice of ion temperature can affect your model results. We discuss the theoretical reasons behind this phenomenon using an inductively coupled plasma example.
