How to Use Hexapod 6-DOF Motion and Positioning Systems

Hexapod positioning systems (Stewart Platforms) are versatile tools for multi-axis positioning and motion simulation applications. Hexapods provide 6 degrees of freedom and a user programmable center of rotation (pivot point) that allows extraordinary flexibility in alignment applications. Read more

What is an Outrunner Motor?

Typically an outrunner motor is a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) torque motor. Therefore, the motor consists of a stator with coils and a rotor with permanent magnets. With conventional motors, the magnets are attached to a shaft that rotates on…

Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Production Models

To demonstrate how the COMSOL Multiphysics® software can be used for modeling hydrogen and energy production through electrolyzers, fuel cells, and related technology, we create example models and other guides on a regular basis. Browse example models and see suggested add-on modules in this resource collection. Read more

Accurate Data for Mass-balance Calculations in Pilot Plants

A pilot plant in the chemical/petrochemical industry is a small-scale simulation of manufacturing operations where results determine the most suitable process and the best equipment for scale up. A pilot plant reduces the technical and commercial risk associated with large process plants by providing valuable preliminary scientific data about reactions, material properties, process yields and more….

Explore new paths towards an environmentally friendly energy transition

Our mass flow controllers for ammonia gas are being used in research to explore new paths towards an environmentally friendly energy transition. Ammonia is often referred to as a key component in hydrogen transportation, but it has great potential to become an energy carrier of the future itself. The challenge is posed by the technically demanding combustion process. Apart from…
