Accounting for Heat in the Design of Lithium-Ion Batteries
Heat transfer is an important phenomenon to consider when designing a lithium-ion battery. See how multiphysics simulation can help ensure a safe and efficient Li-ion battery design.
Improving the Beer Brewing Process with Simulation
Which side of home beer brewing are you more interested in: The culinary side, like the recipes and ingredients, or the engineering one, like the conjugate heat transfer and chemical reactions?
Thermal Contact Resistance Simulation
When 2 materials are in direct contact, thermal conductivity is determined by their properties, but surface roughness introduces air-filled gaps between the materials. How do you model this?
Modeling a Coil Heat Exchanger
Coil heat exchangers are simple and easy to manufacture — but what about modeling them? Adding expressions to compute the temperature drop between coil turns simplifies the modeling process.
