Modeling Microwave Heating During Batch Processing of a Liquid Sample in a Single Mode Cavity
The use of microwaves for heating purposes of dielectric materials is encountered in many industrial applications (food processing, chemistry, material engineering and medical applications). In most of these thermal applications, the prediction of the temperature evolution within the ... En savoir plus
Thermomechanical Modeling of Dislocation Density Increase During PVT of SiC Crystals
During Physical Vapor Transport (PVT) growth of single 4H-SiC crystal and subsequent cooling down, thermal stresses lead to the multiplication of dislocations that are non-desirable for the semiconductor applications of this material. These dislocations induced by thermal stresses could ... En savoir plus
A COMSOL Multiphysics® App for the Thermal Analysis of Electronic Devices
Among the new features introduced by the latest versions of COMSOL Multiphysics® software, the opportunity of building up customized model interfaces by exploiting the Application Builder is for sure one of the most promising. Arising from this concept, the Certified Consultant BE CAE ... En savoir plus
Aerothermal Simulation of a Refrigerated Truck Under Open/Closed-Door Cycles
Heat transfer inside a refrigerated truck is a key phenomenon that governs the temperature inside the truck and the regulation of the cooling system. Up to now, a lot of experimental studies ([Tso et al., 02]) have been carried out to assess the effect of opening the door and to minimize ... En savoir plus
A Model Coupling Water Transport with Local Deformation and Polymer Phase Transition
Describing and predicting the extent of the physicochemical processes as well as geometrical deformation taking place during food transformation is of major importance to control food functional properties. Unfortunately, only a few food-matrix models consider deformation particularly ... En savoir plus
Improvements on Cyclotron Gas Target Cooling System Using COMSOL Multiphysics® Software
Medical Cyclotrons are used in hospitals to manufacture radiopharmaceuticals. The nuclear reaction between the Cyclotron charged particles and a material takes place inside the so-called targets. In particular, gas target is used when a specific gas is bombarded with proton particles to ... En savoir plus
Simulating Experiments with the COMSOL Application Builder for Teaching Scientific Research Methods
The scientific method requires techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge [1]. The Oxford English Dictionary defines the scientific method as "a method or procedure that has characterized natural science since the ... En savoir plus
Inverse Problem and a New Device to Estimate Thermal Conductivity of Composite Phase Change Material
A new experimental device has been developed in order to characterize the phase change material (PCM) thermal properties (thermal conductivity k, sensible and latent heat thermal energy storage, cp and Lf) in the solid phase, during the solid-liquid transition and in the liquid phase. It ... En savoir plus
Cooling Study of Baffles Integration in the Molding Industry
In the molding industry, high productivity rate, low energy consumption, large 3D parts, and homogeneous temperature distribution are the main targets. The 3iTech® inductive technology developed by RocTool ensures both good temperature homogeneity and short heating time. Conventionally, ... En savoir plus
Structural and Environmental Design of a Rainscreen System Using COMSOL Multiphysics
The subject of the study is a bespoke rainscreen system designed for the Grand Theatre of Rabat, Morocco (Figure 1). The project presents a complex façade geometry and consists of a 1800-seat theater, an open-air amphitheater with a capacity of 7000 people, a rehearsal space and a ... En savoir plus
