The main drawbacks of the desalination technologies are the high energy requirement and the environmental issue related to both the brine discharge and the energy sources exploited. Thus, passive desalination is considered the most suitable expedient to address these issues and to ... Read More
Photovoltaic-powered electrolysis (PV-EC) though the most mature technology for zero-carbon integrated solar to hydrogen conversion, is still only approaching industrial and commercial relevance, and devices with light absorber area larger than 100 cm2 are quite rare [1,2]. Here, we ... Read More
In order to optimize the industrial “ammunition cooling” process, a COMSOL Multiphysics® model is proposed. A shell body filled with a melt-cast explosive formulation is poured and cooled by circulation of a heat transfer fluid. The solidification of the explosive composition has several ... Read More
High-Temperature Superconductors (HTS) can be superconducting in liquid nitrogen (77 K), holding immense promises for our future. They could enable disruptive technologies such as nuclear fusion and power applications. In a power system, for instance, high short-circuit currents can ... Read More
ALD Vacuum Technologies GmbH has been using COMSOL Multiphysics® since 2020. Our machines use an electron beam system to provide the required process heat. Multiple physical aspects of this electron beam system are simulated in COMSOL Multiphysics®. Strong alternating currents run ... Read More
Introduction Over the last years, there has been an increasing interest in plastic recycling as an alternative to reduce fossil fuel dependency. In this light, chemical recycling has been presented as a promising strategy to maximise the recycling rate, although this technology presents ... Read More
Heat management has became a bottleneck in electronic engineering because of the large amount of energy released by current devices due to its extreme level of miniaturization [1]. This is a very important limitation to achieve, for example, terahertz clock-rates in computing and it is ... Read More
The increasing demand for more efficient cooling options in the fields of fuel cell mobility and power electronics motivates for the development of novel cooling strategies with improved heat transfer. Forced convection of liquids is a common cooling method and allows high temperature ... Read More
Convective instability in a thin liquid layer is observed in many technical systems [1] and is of interest to the self-organization theory. To date, however, only simple problems with the convection between flat plates are well studied [2]. In real systems and devices, convective flows ... Read More
In this work the implementation of an optimization method [1, 2] for inverse heat transfer and for the sensor position correction, such as thermocouples, in COMSOL Multiphysics®and LiveLink™ for MATLAB® is presented. The inverse method is used to determine the unknown boundary condition ... Read More
