Applied research area
I. Applied electrochemistry I:1 Mass transport in turbulent bubbly cells I:2 The mirror effect and surface roughness in gas-evolving electrodes I:3 Pickling of steel I:4 Flow in nuclear reactors I:5 Development of an electrodialysis cell I:6 Flow in solid polymer fuel cells I:7 Modelling of transport processes in batteries and fuel cells
I:7 Modelling of transport processes in batteries and fuel cells
The aim of this project is to develop modelling tools for the simulation of transport phenomena in electrochemical systems, such as batteries and fuel cells. This will require the adaption and extension of COMSOL AB's commercially available finite-element code, FEMLAB, to fluid dynamics problems. The initial phase of the work will involve the implementation of a turbulence model into the software, with a later phase involving its application into diffusive, migrative and convective transport-reaction processes.
