The blast furnace shaft is a huge counter flow reactor in which heat and mass exchange play a significant role in its mathematical modelling. The heat exchange model is already available in COMSOL Multiphysics® via the Local Thermal Non-Equilibrium interface. This multiphysics coupling ... Read More
In silico models can be exploited to predict cellular dynamics, such as resource uptake, migration and proliferation. Continuum modelling strategies such as finite element (FE) simulations are amongst the most common, but cannot exhaustively describe the metabolic consumption of cells, ... Read More
This work, which is done in the framework of the SisAl Pilot EU project, presents the use of the COMSOL Multiphysics® software for simulating ladle furnace preheating. The SisAl Pilot project aims at optimising the silicon production in Europe by recycling materials and using a carbon ... Read More
In metallurgy, the use of numerical models is popular because of the many coupled physical phenomena that occur during the various processes. For instance, the resulting shape and metallurgical state of a material are very sensitive to changes in temperature. The drop in temperature of ... Read More
The thermal load on the system components is one of the technical problems in the development of microfocus X-ray tubes. To improve their stability in long-term use, it is important to understand the physical phenomena and their influence on the system stability and filament lifetime. To ... Read More
Pumped two-phase cooling for improving thermal management of IGBT in rail transportation has been investigated both experimentally and numerically. The experimental study on pumped two-phase cold plate of IGBT used in HXD1C locomotives was conducted at a mass flow rate of 0.1 kg/s to 0 ... Read More
The growing adoption of electric vehicles has led to increased exposure of cars to stray magnetic fields. To address this issue, inductive position sensors have emerged as a viable solution due to their inherent immunity to stray magnetic fields. Widespread adoption of the inductive ... Read More
Transforming the energy sector worldwide towards renewable, climate-neutral energy sources requires innovative ideas and excellent engineering solutions. In particular, shallow geothermal energy utilization is currently showing a remarkable development. In highly urbanized regions, large ... Read More
In order to reduce the environmental footprint of a serial production of head lamps, one lever is to replace and employ new materials, often requiring to redesign the product to ensure its mechanical and thermal resistance. In this context, this paper studies the modelling of the heat ... Read More
Historically, indoor air quality (IAQ) has received less attention than outdoors, although people spend >90% of their time in the indoor environment. A major group of indoor air pollutants is volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are detrimental to human health even at low ... Read More
