Analyzing Utility Boiler Designs by Simulating Radiative Heat Transfer

March 6, 2017

To study a utility boiler furnace, you need to account for the effects of radiation, which is difficult to solve for analytically and study experimentally. That’s where simulation comes in.

Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy: Experiment, Model, and App

February 9, 2017

Experience the phenomenon of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in 3 ways: experiment, model, and simulation application.

Fat-Washing Cocktails on an Industrial Scale

February 2, 2017

Bacon-flavored vodka? Pecan-infused bourbon? The fat-washing process extracts the flavors from fat and dissolves it into alcohol, and it can even be scaled up to an industrial level.

Modeling the Performance of an Evaporative Emission Control System

January 13, 2017

Researchers turned to COMSOL Multiphysics to model the adsorption and desorption in an evaporative emissions control system for enhanced automotive efficiency.

Study Contaminant Removal in Membrane Dialysis Devices with an App

December 15, 2016

We discuss treating renal failure with hemodialysis, analyzing contaminant concentration in a membrane dialysis device, and optimizing a membrane dialysis device with a numerical modeling app.

Modeling Electrochemical Processes in a Solid-State Lithium-Ion Battery

December 7, 2016

Lithium-ion batteries are found in everything from consumer electronics to aerospace technology. We discuss certain design challenges that have emerged over the years.

Designing Effective Transdermal Drug Delivery Patches with Simulation

November 29, 2016

Transdermal drug delivery (TDD) patches are more effective and convenient than traditional drug delivery methods. See how Veryst Engineering simulated the diffusion process in a TDD patch.

Studying the Migration of Mineral Oil Hydrocarbons in Food Packaging
