The aim of this study is to evaluate the airflow thermal distribution inside a storehouse in different operational conditions. A warehouse of 12,600 m3 in volume is considered for fluid-dynamical and thermal analysis. Coupled Navier-Stokes and energy equations are solved considering or ... Read More
Nowadays, designing ever more efficient power modules requires complex materials and more innovative methodologies. To significantly reduce the lead time of the devices and decrease the costs, especially during the prototyping and the testing phases, a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) can ... Read More
An electrically heated fixed bed (19 mm diameter, 200 mm length) is investigated regarding its electrical conductivity. Various electrically conductive activated carbons are used. The fixed bed is constructed from activated carbon pellets and/or activated carbon fabric. Electrical ... Read More
Over the past million years, several cold ages have occurred and thereby caused perma-frost conditions basically all over the present area of Germany. Since in Germany the safe-ty of a nuclear waste repository legally needs to be investigated for a period of one million years, the ground ... Read More
Power-to-gas is an important area of research for reducing greenhouse gases and seasonal energy storage. Methane, with a Lower Heating Value of 50 MJ/kg, is already a commonly used gas, and its synthesis using green hydrogen production (electrolysis of renewable energy) is a remarkable ... Read More
Macroscopic modeling of fluid flow and thermal diffusion, in a porous medium, requires the description of equivalent properties (permeability, conductivity and diffusivity). However, depending on the microstructure topology of the porous medium and the fluid flow regime at the ... Read More
In this paper, we present a study of the simulation of Directed Energy Deposition (DED) Additive Manufacturing (AM) using a multiphysics approach. We use a combination of Heat Transfer in Fluids, Solid Mechanics and Laminar Flow physics to accurately simulate the DED process. The ... Read More
High power consumption chips have already become a major challenge for modern processors causing low thermal performances. Existing thermal solutions are not able to solve these high temperature issues efficiently. Two-phase cooling devices such as heat pipes and vapor chambers have ... 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 an ensemble averaged electric arc in a laboratory-scale electric arc furnace. The SisAl Pilot project aims at optimising the silicon production in ... Read More
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
