Several key features of COMSOL Multiphysics make it particularly useful for catalysis research:
Chemical Reaction Engineering Module: This module allows users to model detailed reaction kinetics and catalytic surface reactions. Heat Transfer Module: Essential for studying exothermic or endothermic reactions, this module helps simulate temperature profiles. CFD Module: The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) module is crucial for modeling fluid flow and mixing in catalytic reactors. Porous Media Flow: This feature is important for simulating flow through porous catalytic materials. Electrochemistry Module: Useful for modeling electrocatalytic processes, such as fuel cells and electrolyzers.
