A thermo-hydraulically (TH) coupled code for modelling the water uptake of compacted bentonite has been developed and presented by (Kröhn and Fromme 2023). This code is internally called “COMSOL-VIPER” as it is based on the balance equations developed for the experimental code VIPER ... Read More
In the rapid development cycle of sensor systems, minimizing time-to-market is crucial. However, designing a new MEMS-chip (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) presents significant challenges due to the extensive time required for manufacturing and characterization. This delay affects the ... Read More
In the frame of the decarbonization of steel industry, with the aim of creating new technologies and applications, RinaCSM developed for the EU project Horizon ModHEATech an electromagnetic-thermal model with Comsol Multiphysics in order to study the heating of a steel billet by ... Read More
The contamination of food products with low water contents is a safety issue that cannot be disregarded. Despite their low water activity, they are indeed susceptible to infection by micro-organisms that are highly resistant to heat. In this case, conventional pasteurisation techniques ... Read More
Present work is done in the framework of the SisAl Pilot EU project, which aims at optimising the silicon production in Europe by recycling materials and using a carbon-emission friendly technology. The silicon production experiments are conducted on laboratory and pilot scales in ... Read More
The objective of this simulation model is to enhance the thermal behavior in a MEMS Gas-Chromatographer (GC) pre-concentrator for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) carried by Helium gas. The simulation plays a critical role in estimating voltages, thermal time constants, and spatial ... Read More
Metal foams are interesting materials with many potential uses. They are characterized by a cellular structure represented by a metal (or a metal alloy) and gas voids inside. A common metallic cellular material is a solid sponge, also known as open-cell metal foam. Due to their intrinsic ... Read More
The lithospheric mantle often undergoes enrichment in incompatible chemical elements during ocean closure and collisional orogeny. This enrichment is most pronounced during the subduction of sedimentary rocks and crystalline crust derived from continents. Uranium and thorium are ... Read More
Temperature homogeneity is a critical issue for high temperature vacuum furnaces for heat treatment, as small temperature variations in the load volume can significantly influence the heat treatment result. It is generally defined by the so-called Temperature Uniformity Survey (TUS) ... Read More
Axial-flux permanent-magnet motors are an important technology in many technical applications, being an alternative to radial-flux motors. Axial-flux motors come up with many advantages in comparison to radial-flux motors such as high-power density, higher torque to weight ratio etc. ... Read More
