Intro to Modeling Chemical Reactions in COMSOL Multiphysics®
Duration: 17:41
In this archived webinar, get an overview of the Chemical Reaction Engineering Module, an add-on product to the COMSOL Multiphysics® software for simulating chemical processes and designs. We cover the systems that are typically analyzed with this module as well as modeling strategies for chemical reactions and transport phenomena.
You will also see a demo of how to use this module to define a space-dependent model of a reactor accounting for:
- Kinetics
- Thermodynamics and transport properties
- Chemical species transport
- Heat transfer
- Fluid flow
