There is great interest in developing all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries. They are ideal micro-power sources for many applications in portable electronic devices, electric vehicles and biomedical engineering. The batteries are possessed of high energy and power densities, good ... En savoir plus
The COMSOL Multiphysics® software has proved itself an invaluable tool for teaching "Transport Phenomena" to graduate and undergraduate engineers. In particular, the software allows us to visualize and explore solutions well beyond what students could do with pencil and paper. For ... En savoir plus
Concerning the reduction of fossil-energy use from industrial processes, power generation and transportation, concentrated solar power from dish reflectors is well suited for driving highly endothermic reactions that valorize CO2 and/or light hydrocarbons. In this study, a directly ... En savoir plus
Hydrogen has great potential to be the fuel of the future through utilization in fuel cells, but it is rarely found naturally and must be produced in energy-intensive processes. Steam reforming, the process of heating natural gas and steam in the presence of a catalyst to drive a ... En savoir plus
The IR CO2 laser powered chemical conversions in the gas phase are intriguing and the researchers’ attention was focused on this transformation a while ago. The method, known as Infrared Laser Powered Homogeneous Pyrolysis, or IR LPHP opened reaction pathways not reached by conventional ... En savoir plus
Recent rapid progress in MEMS with wireless communication system has enabled low power micro sensor network for human body, Body Area Sensor Network (BASN). The information gathering from BASNs will provide a significant opportunities for various medical applications. One of the key ... En savoir plus
In the present study, the performance of the two novel solar thermal collectors are modeled using COMSOL Multiphysics. Firstly, Parabola and seagull geometries are utilized as primary and secondary reflector with high concentrator(50X) for high temperature application (650°C). Secondly ... En savoir plus
Propylene is the second most important olefin and the second largest volume industrial chemical produced globally. In 2015, the global demand for propylene was about 94 million metric tons. The largest use for propylene is the production of polypropylene, consuming 67% of propylene ... En savoir plus
Lithium ion batteries and similar energy storage devices have an increasing importance for the modern society as they are present in many portable electronic devices and have perspectives in the fields of electric vehicles and renewable energy accumulation. Herein, we present results ... En savoir plus
Field observations suggest that two-phase "heat-pipe" processes are active around magmatic intrusions. We are numerically testing the viability of this process around a volcanic sill, embedded in wet sediment. The model focuses on the heat transported by water in the vapor and liquid ... En savoir plus
