CD explains reaction modelling
A free CD teaches scientists and engineers how to easily access modelling techniques in order to accelerate the analysis of real-world reaction applications.
A reactor is the pulsating heart of any chemical process, whether in industry or in the laboratory Although a reactor might be surrounded by other equipment such as separators, filters, and cleaning equipment, it is the key element where the reactions happens

Mathematical modelling moves on to new peaks
Femlab 3 uses proven finite-element analysis to efficiently solve models of physical phenomena so engineers and scientists can better understand their underlying properties.
Modelling package turns to MEMS design
A new MEMS Module for the Femlab mathematical modelling package allows designers to model micro electromechanical systems with physical dimensions of microns.
Thus engineers have long studied them closely, often using modelling techniques and computer simulations.
A CD entitled "Introduction to the Comsol Reaction Engineering Lab" teaches scientists and engineers how to easily access modelling techniques in order to accelerate the analysis of real-world reaction applications.
The CD focuses on three broad categories of tasks or modelling stages, which it presents with the help of real-world models: analysis of reaction performance in perfectly mixed systems; comparison of results with experimental data for validation/calibration of a model; and performing a space-dependent simulation in 1, 2 or 3D.
In these fully documented examples, users are guided through the entire modelling process by an animated audio/visual presentation.
All examples are based on modelling and simulation in the Comsol Reaction Engineering Lab.
"Chemists and chemical engineers will be amazed at how much more quickly they can analyse chemical systems and develop new processes", states Ed Fontes, VP of Applications.
"This CD will help users realise the benefits of reaction engineering modelling and simulation".
"Furthermore, this CD will also be a big hit in any educational setting".
"Students can learn how today's simulation tools put the focus on a problem's chemistry and physics, and how they can perform virtual experiments to gain an understanding of real-life chemical reaction processes".
The CD "Introduction to the Comsol Reaction Engineering Lab" is available immediately, free of charge. Request a free brochure from Comsol ...
