Modeling Hydrodealkylation in a Membrane Reactor
Hydrodealkylation is a hydrogen-intensive process. We demonstrate using the thermodynamics modeling features in the COMSOL® software to analyze this process in a membrane reactor.
Photos from the COMSOL Conference 2014 Boston
Did you happen to attend the COMSOL Conference 2014 Boston (our tenth annual event?) If so, take a look at our photo slideshow and see if you can spot yourself!
Ion Temperature in Inductively Coupled Plasmas (ICPs)
When modeling plasmas, your choice of ion temperature can affect your model results. We discuss the theoretical reasons behind this phenomenon using an inductively coupled plasma example.
Designing Electric Vehicles with Magnetic Cooling Technology
Researchers from the National Institute of Applied Science designed a magnetocaloric HVAC system for an electric vehicle using multiphysics simulation. Get the full story >>
The Mystery Behind the Earth’s Magnetic Field Flip
Earth’s magnetic field typically remains stable. However, studies have shown that throughout history, geomagnetic reversals have occurred — irregular intervals when Earth’s magnetic field flips.
Green Energy Management for Communication Systems
Look inside a team at Bell Labs, the research arm of Alcatel-Lucent committed to designing technologies for significantly improving energy management for next-generation telecom products.
Yield Surfaces and Plastic Flow Rules in Geomechanics
Have you noticed that offshore structures are being constructed in deeper and deeper waters? See how geotechnical engineers are using numerical simulations to cope with this trend.
Modeling Reacting Flow in Porous Media
This blog post and embedded tutorial video demonstrate what inputs are required and what results you can obtain when modeling a porous reactor in COMSOL Multiphysics®.
