    Comsol Guidance
AI Thread Summary
Chirag is seeking assistance with simulating the adsorption cooling process in COMSOL, specifically aiming to model the entire cycle involving cooling, adsorption, heating, and desorption in one file. He has successfully simulated the individual processes but encounters issues when trying to couple the cooling and adsorption phases, as the simulation shows an immediate drop in surface concentration without the expected adsorption effect. Other users in the discussion suggest checking the implementation of the condition for starting the adsorption process and the boundary conditions, as they might be affecting the timing or effectiveness of the process. Additionally, another user mentions their own need for help with simulating blood flow in an elastic tube using COMSOL. The conversation highlights a collaborative effort to troubleshoot COMSOL modeling challenges.

hey guys...
can someone here, expert in COMSOL ,help me out ?:rolleyes:
I am stuck in my work and seek some guidence..

...hi there, I think there are couple of us here who've been stuck with Comsol more than a few times ... usually with more or less happy endings, so just "bring it on" :-p .
 
well...I am trying to simulate the adsorption cooling process with COMSOL.
This cycle has 4 parts i.e cooling, adsorption, heating ,desorption.I could simulate these processes one at a time easily. Now I want to model whole cycle in one comsol file. To begin with I am trying to couple cooling and adsorption process using integration point coupling variable. I have written one external script file. Ideally it should happen that when temperature at the specified location ( i.e surface of adsorber)reaches 397 K , the adsorption process should start i.e the adsorber starts to adsorb vapour and the vapour concentration increases with time. The simulation runs but the domain plot shows that there is immediate drop in surface concentration and eventually no adsorption effect is seen. I have modeled the boundary conditions as function of this coupling variable and checked the logic many time. If someone knows the probable mistake in this model, please revert back. I can send you the comsol files easily. Thanx a lot :)
 
As far as I can tell the way you've done it should work, however, there can be 'something' in how the steps couple and how one feeds others. How have you actually implemented the condition for starting the adsorption process (as a function of temperature & time ... or well, probably temperature) and is the adsorber given as a domain or directly as a bc? I was thinking whether some boundary or other sort of condition is leeching on the process too early (for example), doesn't take place at the appropriate time or temperature (like happens explicitly too early because of some expression that has an inherent time / temperature dependency etc.). I can take a look at the Comsol files if you wish as well (I'll PM you an email address for the files).
 
hey...thats so nice of you that you are eager to help !..
well, you can mail me ur email address...I will explain you the model in detail and send the corresponding COMSOL files as well..:smile:
 
Hi there,
I'm trying to simulate bloob flow in an elastic tube using COMSOL and I need some help I'm using structure-fluid intraction in transient mode any tip will help
 

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...
