Heat Transfer, General Introduction, V 4.3Heat Transfer, General Introduction, V 4.3

This PowerPoint document is a general introduction to the heat transfer capabilities of COMSOL Multiphysics and also COMSOL Multiphysics with the Heat Transfer Module. It is organized in 4 parts: -1- Presentation of different thermal...

Continuous CastingContinuous Casting

This example models the casting process of a metal rod from melted to solid state using the Non-Isothermal Flow multiphysics interface, which combines heat transfer and fluid flow. The model describes the fluid and solid flow and heat...

Boiling WaterBoiling Water

Boiling flow is an example of phase transition initiated by raising the temperature of a liquid above its saturation temperature. It is possible to accomplish this in many ways; in this example by applying an external heat flux to a solid...

Convection Cooling of Circuit Boards: Forced and Natural ConvectionConvection Cooling of Circuit Boards: Forced and Natural Convection

The suite of models examine the air cooling of circuit boards populated with multiple integrated circuits (ICs), which act as heat sources. Two possible cooling scenarios are depicted: vertically aligned boards using natural convection,...

Fluid-Structure Interaction in Aluminum ExtrusionFluid-Structure Interaction in Aluminum Extrusion

In massive forming processes like rolling or extrusion, metal alloys are deformed in a hot solid state with material flowing under ideally plastic conditions. Such processes can be simulated effectively using computational fluid dynamics,...

Heat SinkHeat Sink

This model is intended as a first introduction to simulations of fluid flow and conjugate heat transfer. It shows you how to: Draw an air box around a device in order to model convective cooling in this box. Set a total heat flux on a...

Friction Stir Welding of an Aluminum PlateFriction Stir Welding of an Aluminum Plate

In friction stir welding, a rotating tool moves along the weld joint and melts the aluminum through the generation of friction heat. The tool’s rotation stirs the melted aluminum such that the two plates are joined. In this model,...

Turbulent Flow Through a Shell-and-Tube Heat ExchangerTurbulent Flow Through a Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchanger

This model studies a part of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger where hot water enters from above. The cooling medium flows through the tubes that, in this model, impose a constant temperature at the walls. Furthermore, the tubes are assumed...

Thermo-Photo-Voltaic (TPV) CellThermo-Photo-Voltaic (TPV) Cell

This model illustrates an application that maximizes surface-to-surface radiative fluxes and minimizes conductive heat fluxes. A thermo-photo-voltaic (TPV) cell generates electricity from the combustion of fuel and through radiation....
