Introduction

The course introduces you to the simulation of heat transfer by conduction, convection and radiation with the Heat Transfer Module of COMSOL Multiphysics. Based on the actual practice in modeling of heat transmission, heating and cooling systems you will learn the workflow to create successful models: geometry handling, physics, meshing, solving and postprocessing.

Content

  • Fundamentals of heat transfer (conduction, convection, radiation)
  • Heat conduction in solids
  • Heat conduction in thin shells
  • Forced and free convection in fluids
  • Radiative heat transfer in free space
  • Heat generation by reactions and electricity
  • Modeling of thin layers: thermal contacts and highly conductive layers
  • Heat transfer in turbulent regimes

Instructor

Tycho van Noorden
COMSOL BV

He holds a PhD in Applied Mathematics, and has developed his expertise in many different areas: linear and non-linear solver techniques, engineering applications in oil transport, air purification and groundwater flows, and multiscale modelling such as the global ocean flow and underground CO2 storage. As a former assistant professor, he has extensive experience as both a mathematics and modelling instructor.

Suggested Background

This course is suitable for anyone interested in using COMSOL Multiphysics for the mathematical modeling of physics phenomena. An advanced undergraduate/beginning graduate level of engineering or science education is assumed. Also assumed is some familiarity with the fundamentals of heat transfer. Attendees should have an understanding of the COMSOL GUI, model building methods, and multiphysics finite element methods.
