They offer discipline standard terminology and interfaces, materials libraries, specialized solvers, elements, and visualizationtools.

  10. The Chemical Engineering Module The Chemical Engineering Module presents a powerful way of modeling equipment and processes in chemical engineering. It provides customized interfaces and formulations for momentum, mass, and heat transport coupled with chemicalreactions for applications such as: • Reaction engineering and design • Heterogeneous catalysis • Separation processes • Fuel cells and industrial electrolysis • Process control together with Simulink

  11. The Chemical Engineering Module … COMSOL Multiphysics excels in solving systems of couplednonlinear PDEs that can include: • Heat transfer • Mass transfer through diffusion and convection • Fluid dynamics • Chemical reaction kinetics • Varying material properties The multiphysics capabilities of COMSOL can fully couple and simultaneously model fluid flow, mass and heat transport, and chemical reactions.

  12. The Chemical Engineering Module … In fluid dynamics you can model fluid flow through porous media or characterize flow with the Navier-Stokes equations. It is easy to represent chemical reactions by source or sink terms in mass and heat balances. All formulations exist for both Cartesian and Cylindrical coordinates (for axisymmetric models) as well as for stationary and time-dependent cases.

  13. The Chemical Engineering Module … The available application modes are: • Momentum balances • Incompressible Navier-Stokes equations • Darcy’s law • Brinkman equations • Non-Newtonian flow • Nonisothermal and weakly compressible flow • Turbulent flow, k-ε turbulence model • Turbulent flow, k-ω turbulence model • Multiphase flow

  14. The Chemical Engineering Module … • Energy balances • Heat conduction • Heat convection and conduction • Mass balances • Diffusion • Convection and diffusion • Electrokinetic flow • Maxwell-Stefan diffusion and convection • Nernst-Planck transport equations

  15. The Modeling Process The modeling process in COMSOL consists of six main steps: • Selecting the appropriate application mode in the Model Navigator. • Drawing or importing the model geometry in the Draw Mode. • Setting up the subdomain equations and boundary conditions in the Physics Mode. • Meshing in the Mesh Mode. • Solving in the Solve Mode. • Postprocessing in the Postprocessing Mode.

  16. 1. The Model Navigator When starting COMSOL Multiphysics, you are greeted by the Model Navigator. Here you begin the modeling process and control all program settings. It lets you select space dimension and application modes to begin working on a new model, open an existing model you have already created, or open an entry in the Model Library. COMSOL Multiphysics provides an integrated graphical user interface where you can build and solve models by using predefined physics modes

  17. 2. Creating Geometry An important part of the modeling process is creating the geometry. The COMSOL Multiphysics user interface contains a set of CAD tools for geometry modeling in 1D, 2D, and 3D. The CAD Import Module provides an interface for import of Parasolid, SAT (ACIS), STEP, and IGES formats. In combination with the programming tools, you can even use images and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data to create a geometry.

  18. Axes and Grid In the COMSOL Multiphysics user interface you can set limits for the model axes and adjust the grid lines. The grid and axis settings help you get just the right view to produce a model geometry. To change these settings, use the Axes/Grid Settings dialog box that you open from the Options menu. You can also set the axis limits with the zoom functions.

  19. Axes and Grid The default names for coordinate systems vary with the space dimension: • Models that you open using the space dimensions 1D, 2D, and 3D use the Cartesian coordinates x, y, and z. • In 1D axisymmetric geometries the default coordinate is r, the radial direction. The x-axis represents r. • In 2D axisymmetric geometries the x-axis represents r, the radial direction, and the y-axis represents z, the height coordinate.

  20. 3. Modeling Physics and Equations From the Physics menu you can specify all the physics and equations that define a model including: • Boundary and interface conditions • Domain equations • Material properties • Initial conditions

  21. 4. Creating Mesh When the geometry is complete and the parameters are defined, COMSOL Multiphysics automatically meshes the geometry. However, you can take charge of the mesh-generation process through a set of control parameters. For a 2D geometry the mesh generator partitions the subdomains into triangular or quadrilateral mesh elements. Similarly, in 3D the mesh generator partitions the subdomains into tetrahedral, hexahedral, or prism mesh elements.

  22. 5. Solution Next comes the solution stage. Here COMSOL Multiphysics comes with a suite of solvers for stationary, eigenvalue, and time-dependent problems. For solving linear systems, the software features both direct and iterative solvers. A range of preconditioners are available for the iterative solvers. COMSOL sets up solver defaults appropriate for the chosen application mode and automatically detects linearity and symmetry in the model. A segregatedsolver provides efficient solution schemes for large multiphysics models, turbulence modeling, and other challenging applications.

  23. 6. Postprocessing For postprocessing, COMSOL provides tools for plotting and postprocessing any model quantity or parameter: • Surface plots • Slice plots • Isosurfaces • Contour plots • Arrow plots • Streamline plots and particle tracing • Cross-sectional plots • Animations • Data display and interpolation • Integration on boundaries and subdomains

  24. Report Generator To document your models, the COMSOL Report Generator provides a comprehensive report of the entire model, including graphics of the geometry, mesh, and postprocessing quantities. You can print the report directly or save it as an HTML file for viewing through a web browser and further editing.
