The aim of the present work is to implement in COMSOL Multiphysics a multiphase fluid flow model in porous media, also known in the oil reservoir engineering literature as a black oil model, using a standard finite element approach. In particular, we are interested to apply this model ... Read More
In this work, we design a type of meta-prism which can provide high-efficiency coupling between free space and optical waveguides at infrared frequencies. The meta-prism is composed of an ABA multilayer structure with a fixed total thickness. By varying the filling ratio of the ... Read More
As a key component of MEMS, microprocessor with high computing performances is facing with severe thermal challenge due to the increasing power density, miniaturization as well as higher operating temperature requirements, and thermal management in corresponding fields has become one of ...

Fin tube heat exchangers are widely used in air conditioning systems. Various fin structures have been proposed and studied in literature to enhance their heat transfer performance. However, enhancement in heat transfer is often accompanied by pressure drop penalty. This study utilized a ... Read More
In this work the effective elastic properties of a SU8 photoresist matrix reinforced with ZnO nanomaterial (in the form of cylindrical nanowires, spherical and ellipsoidal particles) have been evaluated employing COMSOL Multiphysics® software. The Solid Mechanics physics interface of ... Read More
Numerical theory provides the basis for quantification of the accuracy and reliability of a FEM solution by error estimates on the FEM error vs. the mesh spacing of the FEM mesh. This paper presents techniques needed in COMSOL Multiphysics® software to perform computational studies for ... Read More
Solar systems are used around the world, especially in sunny and dry regions, to convert radiation energy from the sun into electricity or heat. Soiling, as dust deposition onto surfaces is commonly called, hinders this conversion of the solar energy by blocking of the incidenting light. ... Read More
At the Technische Universität Chemnitz several academic institutions work on aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) within the Collaborative Research Centre SFB 692 HALS. Besides the development and analysis of these materials one main task is finishing machining of AMCs by an electrochemical ... Read More
In the last few years printable electronics has gained a great deal of interest since it promises mechanical flexibility and extremely low production costs. One approach to achieve printable electronic devices relies on the usage of specific inks containing e.g. dispersed semiconductor ... Read More
Gas-liquid falling film microreactors carry out fast exothermic and mass transfer limited reactions. Since the major rate limiting steps occur on the liquid side, it is important to account for a realistic liquid film profile within the reactor simulation. Based on realistic channel ... Read More
