Introduction to Modeling Evaporative Cooling
From meteorology to food processing, evaporation has many industrial and scientific applications. Here, we give an introduction to modeling evaporation with the Heat Transfer Module.
Creating Schlieren-Type Visualizations in COMSOL Multiphysics®
Did you know that Schlieren imaging might predate written history? Here, we explore this ancient imaging technique with CFD modeling.
Pasta alla Simulazione: Modeling an Extruder in COMSOL®
On an industrial scale, extruders mix and knead raw pasta dough. Avoid issues with looks, taste, and safety by modeling the extrusion process.
