Reactive Transport Modelling In Active Clays Using COMSOL Multiphysics®
The study of the movement of solutes and their interaction with the solid phase of active clays is a problem of maximum interest in various geoenvironmental engineering applications, but especially in the deep geological disposal of spent nuclear fuel and other highly radioactive ... Read More
Optimizing and Improving the Intensity Flux in a Reflective Type Laser Focusing system
Abstract. A Laser Focusing system (LFS) focuses a single laser beam (single Channel) or multiple laser beams (multi - channel) onto a surface (Specimen). The general motive of a LFS is to focus a train of brief pulses or a continuous beam of light onto a Specimen which heats up its ... Read More
Hybrid 2D/3D fully coupled electrothermal model for three-core submarine armored cables
It is a fact that IEC 60287 standard introduces important errors in the computation of the armor losses of submarine three-core lead sheathed armored cables, since the twisting of phases and armor wires is not considered. This results in an overestimation of cable size, and hence its ... Read More
Revisiting Stress Singularity / Concentration Examples with COMSOL Multiphysics®
Numerical stress singularities (SS) and "true" stress concentration (SC) are regularly encountered in structural analysis and need to be acknowledged with care, such to obtain sustainable models. By following Tony ABBEY's interesting and free Talk-Events over the last months (https:/ ... Read More
Numerical simulation of pesticide spray distribution by UAV for Precision Agriculture
Precision agriculture is a multidisciplinary approach that integrates agronomy, engineering, and as well mathematics to improve on agricultural outcomes: one of the main challenges is to develop efficient management systems to effectively distribute (and reduce the use of) pesticides ... Read More
Estimation of Temperature, Microstructure and Deformations in Strip Hardening Industrial Process
In automotive and construction markets, the quest for high strength to weight ratio components is continuously increasing. Therefore, reducing the rejection level of the heat treated advanced high strength steel (AHSS) strips is an active research area. In this study , the evolution of ... Read More
Modeling of an industrial scale packed bed reactor for steam reforming applications.
In this work, the modeling of an industrial scale, single tube, packed bed reactor for steam reforming (SR) application, typically used to provide hydrogen for ammonia synthesis, is discussed. The tightly coupled mass, energy, and momentum equations used to describe the system have been ... Read More
Pulsed Electric Field Analysis for Wine Treatment in Static and Continuous-flow Chambers with COMSOL Multiphysics®
Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) technology is gaining much attention in the food industry, as it offers unique advantages in terms of food safety, preservation of the organoleptic and nutrients properties, and low energetic requirements. Winemaking processes, in particular, can greatly ... Read More
Optical Performance Assessment of a Solar Collector with a Static Concentrator
In this paper a specific version of radiation collecting troughs is investigated. The trough arrangement has a shape which is a combination of a circular arc and adjacent parabolic curve pieces based on a paper by Tripanagnostopoulos [1]. An absorbing tube can be placed at varying ... Read More
Electro-Thermal Analysis of a Micro Heater for aerosol generation application
There is an increasing demand for aerosol devices from E-cigarettes to drug delivery devices with precise dosage. [1][2] The aim of this article is to investigate a Poly-Si micro heater in a vapor generator device. In order to calculate the amount of vapor production, temperature ... Read More
