In this paper, we present a study of the simulation of Directed Energy Deposition (DED) Additive Manufacturing (AM) using a multiphysics approach. We use a combination of Heat Transfer in Fluids, Solid Mechanics and Laminar Flow physics to accurately simulate the DED process. The ... Read More
While common hot water storage geometries are slim and high, this work deals with the conversion of a preexisting cellar room into a hot water storage with an area of 550 m² and a height of only 2.9 m. Next to the poor area-to-height ratio, the room contains columns and bearers for ... Read More
Abstract: In order to study thermal conditions and air flows in an office room, 3D FEM simulation model was created. The room is enclosed by walls, floor and ceiling which thermal characteristics are specified by typical heat transfer coefficients and specific heat capacities. Space ... Read More
In view of an energy system based on fluctuating renewable sources, the use of thermal energy storage (TES) systems plays a crucial role. In particular, large-scale underground water-based TES represent a promising solution as demonstrated by a number of cases currently being established ... Read More
High power consumption chips have already become a major challenge for modern processors causing low thermal performances. Existing thermal solutions are not able to solve these high temperature issues efficiently. Two-phase cooling devices such as heat pipes and vapor chambers have ... Read More
Simulation of laser processes are more and more efficient. In some cases, as welding and additive manufacturing, the physical phenomena are complex, multi-physics and multi-phases, thus some assumptions have to be done. For Laser Powder Bed Fusion, a laser beam melts and vaporizes the ... Read More
Benchmarks are an important tool to verify computational models. In the research area of building physics, the so-called HAMSTAD (Heat, Air and Moisture Standardization) project is a very well known benchmark for the testing of simulation tools. In this paper we evaluate the use of ... Read More
Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining technique that has become increasingly popular and efficient for welding both similar and dissimilar metallic materials. Despite its success in joining dissimilar materials, further development is necessary to meet industry ... Read More
To achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement and limit global warming below 2 K compared to pre-industrial level, significant energy savings in all fields of industries will be required. One example of energy intensive processes in industrial fabrication is heat treatment. The applied ... Read More
A time-dependent study was conducted using COMSOL Multiphysics® (Conjugate Heat Transfer interface and Heat Transfer with Phase Change feature) for the numerical investigation of the thermal performance of novel Phase Change Material (PCM)-enhanced plasters for their incorporation in ... Read More
