The app discussed in this paper is based on a COMSOL Multiphysics® 1D heat transfer model that analyses the heat flow through a double pane window, with a gas chamber between the two panes, as would normally be mounted in the wall of a building, a container or a refrigerated chamber. The ... Read More
The pore sizes of many membranes being studied for separating the components in gas mixtures are on the scale of nanometers. Depending on the specific gases and pressures being used, this scale will put the flows in the Transition between Slip Flow and Knudsen regime. The differential ... Read More
Plasmonics is a new branch of the fascinating field of photonics and develops concepts to quench light beyond the diffraction limit and enhance electromagnetic fields. These enhancements occur in metals as localized surface plasmon polaritons (LSP) a coupling of the surface density ... Read More
A micro Planar Ion Mobility Spectrometer (P-FAIMS) has been simulated using multiphysics software. In P-FAIMS target ions are discriminated by the application of the proper separation voltages to the electrodes of the system. Modelling of vapour phase ions of two compounds have been ... Read More
The proposed dielectric mediums of a hot microbubble interface experience different behaviors due to the electrical mobility of carriers (electron and ion) within their domains. The responses of such mediums towards the initial and average mobility of these carriers can be classified as ... Read More
Temperature Swing Adsorption (TSA) processes are applied for the removal of impurities from various gas streams. The limiting factor of a TSA process is the regeneration step, which is characterized by long heating and cooling times. To reduce the regeneration time, indirectly heated and ... Read More
Developments intended to improve system efficiency and reliability for water and carbon dioxide separation systems to be used on crewed vehicles combine sub-scale systems testing and multiphysics simulations. This paper describes the development of COMSOL Multiphysics® simulations in ... Read More
In this paper a finite element method(FEM) study of a surface acoustic wave (SAW)device excited by electrostatic coupling method is performed by using COMSOL Multiphysics. We have modeled a Rayleigh wave type SAW device by choosing YZ Lithium niobate as the substrate. The effect of ... Read More
Ammonia separation from water by membrane contactor was simulated on transient state and compared with experimental data. Aqueous low concentrated solution of ammonium with high pH has been pumped inside the hydrophobic hollow fibers, acid solution in the outside part. The system is in ... Read More
Aboard the International Space Station, carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere using a four-bed adsorptive separation process, referred to generally as a 4-Bed Molecular Sieve (4BMS). Experience with the current 4BMS design in space has led to a list of areas for improvement for a ... Read More
