Heat Transfer in Porous Media with Transport of dilute species

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi all

I am realtaively new to Comsol and i am trying to solve heat transfer in porous media and simultaneously transport of dilute species inside the porous media due to heat gradient iside the domain. The problem is similar like drying problem. Along with this, due to drying, there is stress development happens in the domain and leads to crack generation.

I am not able to couple these 3 physics : 1. heat transfer in porous media; 2) heat transfer in solid; and 3) transport of dilute species.

Can anyone help me regarding this and guide me solve this problem?

Hi Arijit,

I am just starting with comsol and trying to understand the Heat transfer in Porous media module. So, finally have you solved your problem?

Hi Nigar,

Good day!
I am also just starting with heat transfer in porous media using COMSOL. do you have some documents about how to set the thermal parameters, boundary and initial conditions? There are always some warming for "Failed to find consistent initial values" , and I could not find reasons.

Thanks!
