Metallic bipolar plates promise several advantages for fuel cell applications. On the other hand, cooling of these plates is a critical task regarding design optimization. The high thermal conductivity of the material and the complex geometry of these plates affect directly the cooling ... Read More
Microheaters have been widely investigated because of their extensive applications in gas sensors, flow rate sensors and other Microsystems. The geometric optimization for the microheater was performed by simulating a wide range of possible geometries using COMSOL Multiphysics, a ... Read More
Steam drum in a nuclear power plant is one of the important components of Primary Heat Transport (PHT) system where steam is separated from the steam water mixture. Steam water mixture emanating from the reactor core is separated in a steam drum. Separated steam goes to the turbine ... Read More
Results of simulations on flow and heat transfer in a porous Silicon Carbide honeycomb structure applied as a solar air receiver are presented. In this application porous materials are put in concentrated solar radiation. Flux densities of up to 1000 MW/m² are reached. Simultanously, ... Read More
A numerical investigation of the long-term performance of double U-tube borehole heat exchanger (BHE) fields, in the case of non-negligible effects of groundwater movement, is performed by means of COMSOL Multiphysics. Two time periodic heat loads, with a period of one year, are studied: ... Read More
Simulation tools for building physics problems play an important role in design and understanding the behavior of energy efficient buildings. There are different tools available for simulation of these problems, but each simulation tool has its own advantages and limitations. In this ... Read More
This study aims to numerically investigate on a passive solar system for indoor heating called as \"Trombe wall\". The transient buoyancy driven flow characterizing that system and the thermal distribution are solved by numerically integrating the governing equations in COMSOL ... Read More
The aim of this Project is to obtain a temporary and spatial evolution model of the temperature into a meeting room with the aim to develop an efficient energy mechanism which can improve the air conditioner control system. The project has considered two extremes cases: on the one hand a ... Read More
The purpose of this paper is to describe numerical electro-thermal simulations of the REMS wind sensor unit and the results obtained by using COMSOL Multiphysics. This device is a hot-film anemometer for 2D wind measurements, which does not have movable parts and is based on the air ... Read More
In a hydronic space heating system the heat output arises from natural convection and radiation from the radiators. In order to increase the heat output, without replacing the radiators with larger ones, or increasing the temperature level, the radiator can be equipped with add-onfan ... Read More
