Heterogeneous Model of a Porous Catalyst Bed
Application ID: 36471
A catalyst particle with a hypothetical microstructure is described in detail. The heterogeneous description is approximated in a second model with a homogeneous particle and the results from the two approaches are compared.

This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
however, additional products may be required to completely define and model it. Furthermore, this example may also be defined and modeled using components from the following product combinations:
- COMSOL Multiphysics® et
- Module CAD Import et
- soit le Module Batteries & Fuel Cells, Module CFD, Module Chemical Reaction Engineering, Module Corrosion, Module Electrochemistry, Module Electrodeposition, Module Microfluidics, ou Module Subsurface Flow
The combination of COMSOL® products required to model your application depends on several factors and may include boundary conditions, material properties, physics interfaces, and part libraries. Particular functionality may be common to several products. To determine the right combination of products for your modeling needs, review the Grille des Spécifications and make use of a free evaluation license. The COMSOL Sales and Support teams are available for answering any questions you may have regarding this.
