Tech Insider: Modeling Batteries and Fuel Cells using COMSOL Multiphysics

Thursday, August 14, 2014 • 2:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time

Simulation offers a cost-effective solution for understanding and optimizing batteries, fuel cells, and other electrochemical energy extraction devices. This webinar will show methods that can be used to model lithium-ion batteries, polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC), and more general electrochemical systems using the Batteries & Fuel Cells Module and COMSOL Multiphysics. These models apply fundamental electrochemical theory to predict concentrations and currents, which can be used to correlate the underlying chemistry to experimental data. The webinar will include a live demonstration and conclude with a Q&A session.
