    Comsol Mode Pde
AI Thread Summary
Using the PDE mode in COMSOL Multiphysics allows users to model temperature changes effectively. The discussion centers on modeling a copper piece transitioning from 6 Kelvin to 300 Kelvin and verifying results against custom equations. Users encounter challenges with boundary conditions and errors related to zero matrices. Identifying the source of the zero matrix error is crucial for successful modeling. Understanding how to input equations and set boundary conditions is essential for accurate simulations in COMSOL.

Hi everyone,

Can anyone explain how to use the PDE mode in COMSOL Multiphysics? I used the heat transfer package to model a piece of copper undergoing a change in temperature from 6 Kelvin to 300 Kelvin. Now I want to check to see that I can get the same results with my own equations. I don't even know how I would set the boundaries conditions.

Hi everyone,

I kind of figured out where to input my simple equation, but I keep getting an error due to a zero matrix. How do I find where this zero matrix is located?
 
I need some assistance with calculating hp requirements for moving a load. - The 4000lb load is resting on ball bearing rails so friction is effectively zero and will be covered by my added power contingencies. Load: 4000lbs Distance to travel: 10 meters. Time to Travel: 7.5 seconds Need to accelerate the load from a stop to a nominal speed then decelerate coming to a stop. My power delivery method will be a gearmotor driving a gear rack. - I suspect the pinion gear to be about 3-4in in...
How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...
Thread 'Calculate minimum RPM to self-balance a CMG on two legs'
Here is a photo of a rough drawing of my apparatus that I have built many times and works. I would like to have a formula to give me the RPM necessary for the gyroscope to balance itself on the two legs (screws). I asked Claude to give me a formula and it gave me the following: Let me calculate the required RPM foreffective stabilization. I'll use the principles of gyroscopicprecession and the moment of inertia. First, let's calculate the keyparameters: 1. Moment of inertia of...
