[1] Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Brussels, Belgium
[2] Heerema Marine Contractors, Leiden, The Netherlands

A multilayer polymer coating is applied to carbon steel pipelines installed in the sea to protect against corrosion and to insulate to maintain the temperature. For field joint coatings, both thermosets (like polyurethane) and semi-crystalline thermoplastics (like polypropylene) are ... Per saperne di più

Natural Convection around Horizontal Cylinders subjected to Non-uniform Heating

I. Khan [1],
[1] University of Central Lancashire, Preston, United Kingdom

A two-dimensional steady model of the natural convection around a cylinder is solved numerically using COMSOL Multiphysics software. The cylinder receives non-uniform heat from a radiating panel, which is assumed to be sufficiently far away so that the flow around the panel does not ... Per saperne di più

Modeling of Non-isothermal Reacting Flow in Fluidized Bed Reactors

V. Orava [1], O. Souček [2], P. Cendula [1]
[1] Institute of Computational Physics, ZHAW, Winterthur, Switzerland
[2] Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University in Prague, Prague, Czech Republic

We investigate a prototype concept of a back-up electricity device where we use liquid formic acid (FA) to produce a mixture of carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen (H2) which is used in a PEM fuel cell, Fig. 1. In the fluidized bed reactor the liquid FA is decomposed to a gaseous mixture ... Per saperne di più

GalFeNol is a new Giant Magnetostrictive Material that can be used in energy harvesting especially in vibration reduction applications, thanks to the Joule and Villari effects. A 3D-model of GalFeNol rod is stressed by a time varying longitudinal force of 1000 N. The study has been ... Per saperne di più

Computer Simulation of Microwave Heating of Initially Frozen Sandwiches Using COMSOL Multiphysics® Application Builder

D. Fu [1], L. Wang [2], J. Liao [1], S. Dus [1], K. Bearson [1],
[1] Tyson Foods, Downers Grove, IL, USA
[2] Simulprocess, Summerfield, NC, USA

Customers typically prepare sandwiches using a microwave oven to heat a frozen sandwich. This causes huge temperature variations and quality issues due to multicomponent with different dielectric and physical properties and with phase changes at different freezing points in the heating ...

[1] Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Maryland - Baltimore County, Baltimore, MD, USA
[2] Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Maryland - Baltimore County, Baltimore, MD, USA

Numerical theory provides the basis for quantification of the accuracy and reliability of a FEM solution by error estimates on the FEM error vs. the mesh spacing of the FEM mesh. This paper presents techniques needed in COMSOL Multiphysics® software to perform computational studies for ... Per saperne di più

Single-Phase Modeling in Microchannel with Piranha Pin Fin

X. Yu [1], C. Woodcock [1], Y. Peles [2], J. Plawsky [1],
[1] Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, USA
[2] University of Central Florida, Orlando, FL, USA

Microchannel has shown potential to dissipate high heat flux in past years [1][2]. At the same time, liquid cooling attracts more and more attention from researchers for its favorable thermal properties and ability to cool down hot and keep acceptable system temperature [3][4][5].
