Analyzing Heat and Mass Transfer During Cake Baking with Simulation

April 26, 2017

As you bake a cake, there are many complex heat and mass transport processes taking place behind the oven door. Take a closer look at the art and science involved in the cake baking process…

Model Electrodes with Nonideal Connectivity in Corrosion Analyses

March 14, 2017

Learn the appropriate boundary conditions for performing a corrosion analysis in which an electrode is connected to an external short circuit.

Analyzing Reverse Electrodialysis Units with Multiphysics Modeling

March 10, 2017

Pass the salt…for a clean energy solution. Salinity gradient power relies on osmosis between fresh- and saltwater to generate power, and simulation can help analyze and optimize such systems.

Analyzing Utility Boiler Designs by Simulating Radiative Heat Transfer

March 6, 2017

To study a utility boiler furnace, you need to account for the effects of radiation, which is difficult to solve for analytically and study experimentally. That’s where simulation comes in.

Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy: Experiment, Model, and App

February 9, 2017

Experience the phenomenon of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in 3 ways: experiment, model, and simulation application.

Fat-Washing Cocktails on an Industrial Scale

February 2, 2017

Bacon-flavored vodka? Pecan-infused bourbon? The fat-washing process extracts the flavors from fat and dissolves it into alcohol, and it can even be scaled up to an industrial level.

Modeling the Performance of an Evaporative Emission Control System

January 13, 2017

Researchers turned to COMSOL Multiphysics to model the adsorption and desorption in an evaporative emissions control system for enhanced automotive efficiency.

Study Contaminant Removal in Membrane Dialysis Devices with an App

December 15, 2016

We discuss treating renal failure with hemodialysis, analyzing contaminant concentration in a membrane dialysis device, and optimizing a membrane dialysis device with a numerical modeling app.
