1 Problem Description Most studies for investigating heat and mass transfer phenomena in sorption storage systems use 1D or 2D numerical models. These are inadequate for analyzing processes in more complex geometries used in current prototypes. We present here a 3D model for the ... Read More
In the nuclear industry, and particularly at Framatome, mastery of welding processes is essential. Framatome is one of the world leaders in this field and wants to improve even more. The work presented focuses on improving the TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding process, and more ... Read More
In circuit breakers, short-circuit breaking involves extreme conditions linked to the presence of an intense electric arc. This requires the use of specific electrical contacts consisting of a contact tip and its support. SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC uses the resistance sintering technique for the ... Read More
Refrigeration plays a crucial role in both industrial and residential sectors, where nearly 17% of the energy consumption worldwide is related to thermal management systems [1] [2]. Furthermore, current vapor-compression refrigeration technology contributes significantly to the ... Read More
In this paper, the COMSOL Certified Consultant BE CAE & Test presents a comparison between two approaches exploitable in COMSOL Multiphysics® to simulate water flooding. Flooding is an argument of high interest both in industrial engineering and in environmental science. Dam breaks, ... Read More
Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) is a widely applied technology for the shelf-life extension of fresh and fresh-cut fruits and vegetables. This technique relies on modifying the gas composition inside de package by the respiratory activity of the product and the gas exchange through ... Read More
A digital twin is a virtual set of information replicating its physical counterpart at the utmost fidelity. Digital and physical twin benefit from bi-directional data exchange that occurs in real time and over the whole process lifecycle. Until now, experts in the design phase have ... Read More
Decarbonization of the heating sector requires the exploitation of climate-neutral energy sources and the use of natural heat storage. Shallow and deep geothermal energy can make a valuable contribution to this. The dimensioning and design of geothermal boreholes and larger borehole heat ... Read More
In recent years, the optimization of high-temperature superconductors (HTS) has shown promising potential for developing advanced cable layouts aimed at the realization of practical fusion reactors. Despite their excellent performance in terms of electromagnetic and mechanical stability, ... Read More
Preservation of biopharmaceuticals by spray freeze-drying is of great interest as it involves gentle drying and can be easily integrated with continuous manufacturing strategies. The drying of packed beds have been extensively studied experimentally, but a detailed mathematical model of ... Read More
