Import Table for defining inflow concentration in transport of dilute species

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi everyone,

I am working on a diffusion problem in COMSOL 5.1. I have problem with laminar flow in a pipe. The concentration of solute in the fluid varies over time. I have a table specifying the concentration at every time step. I need to import this table as the inflow for the problem. I was hoping someone could tell me how I could do that. Right now I can only see an option to define a single constant value for inflow.

I am a new user of COMSOL and would appreciate any help.

Create a interpolation function for inlet concentration as a function of time. In the table type in discrete time and concentration. In concentration on boundary type the name of function and argument as 't'
