Microwave drying of foodstuffs is a complex interplay of mass, momentum, and energy transport coupled with large deformation of the solid. To be able to better understand the microwave drying process, a fundamentals-based three dimensional (3D) multiphase porous media based model is ... Read More
An energy pile harvests geothermal energy to heat and cool a building by integrating ground heat exchanger (GHX) pipes into the building’s deep foundation, and extracts heat from the ground in the winter to heat buildings and injects heat into the ground during the summer. In areas with ... Read More
Droplet generation in microfluidics is a powerful technique to get monodispersed emulsions and droplet size manipulation can be very advantageous in a wide area of applications such as pharmaceuticals, drug delivery, food products, chemical synthesis and biomedical applications. In the ... Read More
An external library, M4Dlib [1], has been developed to solve multiphysics problems coupled to solution thermodynamics. This approach extends the local equilibrium concept[2] to multiphysics modeling by incorporating a full Gibbs energy minimization routine at each numerical node to ... Read More
The ongoing trend towards miniaturization, higher integration as well as cost efficiency will make it necessary to investigate a new assembly method for micro components. In this paper, a novel method of fluidic-based micro assembly is presented. A self-assembly effect which is caused by ... Read More
The kinetic interface-sensitive tracers (KIS tracers) are used to give a partial picture of the spreading, mixing and plume migration of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) in the deep saline aquifer by estimating the interfacial areas between scCO2 and brine during the injection of ... Read More
借助数值模拟技术及煤层气排采经验分析排采过程中流体流动运移规律，能够为煤层气井智能排采提供技术支持。本文以某煤层气井地质与开发工程为基础，借助COMSOL软件构建求解数值模型，实现了煤层气排采动态分析及排采制度优化。取得以下主要研究成果： （1）采用含压裂裂缝的Warren-Root物理模型，以达西渗流理论知识为基础，建立了封闭可求解的煤层气排水降压数学模型。 （2）利用二维面和三维长方体叠加的混合法构建压裂裂缝，利用混合法求取边界流量，解决裂隙通量计算误差，提高了计算效率和流量统计准确率。 （3）以参数化扫描研究方法为基础，优化了该井的排采制度 ... Read More
The capture and storage of CO2 in deep geological formations is one of the proposed solutions to reduce CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. CO2 is injected as a supercritical fluid deep below a confining geological formation that prevents its return to the atmosphere. In general, four ... Read More
Svante Littmarck is the CEO of the COMSOL group. He co-founded COMSOL in 1986. He holds a M.Sc. in Applied Mathematics from the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. In 2004 he received an honorary doctoral degree from the Royal Institute of Technology. Read More
The dependency of electrochemical processes performances on mass transfer is well-known. Electrolyte flow in the vicinity of electrodes surface can enhance reactions due to increased mass transfer. This flow can be generated by the production of a gaseous phase, leading to a natural ... Read More
