Confinement systems for nuclear waste are usually designed to perform and ensure safety in view of all the assumed design basis events, including fires. Considering waste typology and radioactivity, the goal of the confinement system design is to protect the content of the steel drums ... Read More
Using COMSOL Multiphysics® software, a new model was implemented with the Physics Builder functionality, which provides a thermomechanical coupling. It consists of two independent physics interfaces, one for the mechanical, viscoelastic behavior and one for the heat transfer. With the ... Read More
In this work the coupled electrochemical-thermal model for a lithium-ion battery (LIB) based on porous electrode theory has been extended with contributions coming from exothermic side reactions based on an Arrhenius law to model abuse mechanisms, which could lead to a thermal runaway. ...

A transient two-dimensional axisymmetric model is implemented in COMSOL Multiphysics® software to simulate temperatures, moisture contents distributions and cake swelling during the baking of cake contained in mold. The medium is assumed to be a deformable porous medium containing three ... Read More
Latent heat storage devices use the melting enthalpy of a so-called phase change material (PCM) to store thermal energy. Open porous metals, such as 3D wire structures, allow the design of systems with tailored storage capacity and power. A geometric unit cell was identified, modelled ... Read More
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) vapor is a preferred medium of sterilization in different fields of industry. Among the fact that it dissociates to oxygen and water (environmentally-friendly), H2O2 vapor possesses strong mircobicidal and sporicidal characteristics. As such, the use of H2O2 ... Read More
The scope of this project was the creation of a short and comprehensive tutorial for the use of COMSOL® Application Builder for students at the University of Applied Sciences Bielefeld. The tutorial is based on the everyday life “problem” how to cool a beer bottle most efficiently. It ... Read More
Adequate cooling of beverages is a major issue in planning of several types of events, e.g. poster sessions at conferences. One crucial factor is the time needed to cool beverages from its initial temperature to the desired drinking temperature. We present a way to determine a close ... Read More
This work is dedicated to exact numerical modeling of modal dispersion and thermal noise in arbitrary cylindrical symmetric WGM structure. We develop a method and compare the results with experimental data from literature. We show that the real form of the resonator makes small influence ... Read More
In this paper the development of a COMSOL® app for the engineering design of thermal quality clothing has been started. The software architecture is developed for different design strategies. Specific design requirements lead to different simulation models for the clothing wearing system ... Read More
