Predict the Performance of Rotating Cone Micropumps with Simulation
Researchers from Texas A&M University used multiphysics simulation to evaluate the fluid dynamics and performance of a rotating cone micropump, a key component in many types of process equipment.
Analyzing Hearing Aid Receivers with Lumped-Parameter Modeling
Modeling complete hearing aid systems is extremely computationally expensive. Enter lumped-parameter modeling, which enables you to couple a system component to a test setup for validation.
Analyzing Utility Boiler Designs by Simulating Radiative Heat Transfer
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.
Analyzing Novel Roof Tile Designs with Multiphysics Simulation
To investigate a novel design for roof tiles that can keep buildings cool in hot climates, called Life HEROTILE Project, a research group from Italy turned to multiphysics simulation.
Solving Shallow Water Equations with Equation-Based Modeling
Shallow water equations are an example of equation-based modeling. You can define expressions in COMSOL Multiphysics® to solve a shallow water equation for coastal erosion analyses.
Improving the Design of Monolithically Integrated Magneto-Optic Routers
Magneto-optic (MO) routers are an efficient alternative to electro-optic (EO) routers for communication systems. Learn about a modeling approach used by researchers to improve MO router designs.
Happy Birthday, Galileo Galilei
Galileo Galilei was a renowned astronomer who changed the way we think about mathematics, physics, and astronomy.
Ensure Accurate Expansion Fan Results with a Benchmark Model
When a supersonic flow turns around a convex corner, it causes an expansion fan. You can analyze this phenomenon in COMSOL Multiphysics® with a validated benchmark.
