A Framework for Automated, Data-Driven Digital Twin Generation from Multiphysical Simulation Models

Maximilian Kannapinn1, Oliver Weeger1
1Technical University of Darmstadt, Cyber-Physical Simulation, Darmstadt, Germany

A digital twin is a virtual set of information replicating its physical counterpart at the utmost fidelity. Digital and physical twin benefit from bi-directional data exchange that occurs in real time and over the whole process lifecycle. Until now, experts in the design phase have ... Read More

Ionic Neuromodulation and Neurosensing Platform for In Vitro Studies

Jacopo Nicolini1, Federico Leva1, Claudio Verardo2, Pierpaolo Palestri3, Luca Selmi1
1Unimore - Università degli studi di Modena e Reggio Emilia
2Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna
3Università degli studi di Udine

Overview We successfully simulated a template iontronic system for closed-loop neuromodulation and neurosensing. The model’s goal is to support the careful design of novel platforms for in-vitro micro-electrode-array sensors coupled to conductive polymer-based (CP) ionic actuators used ... Read More

Degassing of PP Pellets in a Silo: Keeping C9 Concentrations Below the Lower Explosion Limit

R. Wesselink1
1Demcon Multiphysics, Enschede, The Netherlands

When polypropylene (PP) is produced it contains impurities in the form of dissolved gasses. These gasses can be removed by heating the material (in the form of pellets in a silo) and flushing with plenty of fresh air. However, one of the gasses is C9, which is flammable. We built a model ... Read More

Modeling and Simulation Study of a Fixed-Bed Catalytic Reactor for the Hydrogenation of CO2 to CH4

Iñigo Lacarra Etxarri1, Elena Gómez Bravo1, Beñat Pereda Ayo1, José Antonio González Marcos1, Juan Ramón González Velasco1
1University of the Basque Country

The "Power to Gas" technology is a promising alternative for storing renewable electrical energy through energy carriers. This technology involves using surplus energy from renewable sources to obtain green hydrogen through water electrolysis. Since hydrogen storage and transportation ... Read More

Thermal Conduction in Anisotropic Granular Mixtures

Flora Lebeda1, Markus Retsch1
1University of Bayreuth, Bayreuth, Germany

With the ongoing electrification of vehicles as well as rapid digitalization, thermal management is on everyone´s lips. This includes the use of ever-better materials, specifically tailored regarding their thermal properties. To fine-tune the thermal conductivity of a material, composite ... Read More

Towards Data Driven Design of Flow Blurring Atomizer

Cihan Ates1, Abdallah Alshanawani 1, Rainer Koch1, Hans-Jörg Bauer1
1Institute of Thermal Turbomachinery, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany

Liquid atomization relies on a variety of forces that disturb the surface of the liquid. In the case of flow-blurring (FB) atomization, turbulent structures are induced within the liquid channel to achieve this effect. It is known that the transition from the conventional flow-focusing ... Read More

Reinforcement Bars Corrosion in a Carbonated Concrete

Bruno Chiné1, Ronald Jiménez Salas1, Rommel Cuevas Kauffmann2
1School of Materials Science and Engineering, Costa Rica Institute of Technology Cartago, Costa Rica
2School of Construction Engineering, Costa Rica Institute of Technology Cartago, Costa Rica

In the construction sector, the concrete and the steel bars represent still the key components, although they are very vulnerable by the atmospheric agents, as in the case of their degradation caused by corrosion. The value of the concrete carbonation may enhance the corrosion around the ... Read More

A Multiscale Approach to Simulate Vacuum Drying of a Packed Bed of Spray-Frozen Particles

Lorenzo Stratta1, Roberto Pisano1, Merve Betul Adali1, Gianluca Boccardo1, Antonello Barresi1, Agnese Marcato1, Raffaele Tuccinardi1
1Politecnico di Torino, Torino, Italy

Preservation of biopharmaceuticals by spray freeze-drying is of great interest as it involves gentle drying and can be easily integrated with continuous manufacturing strategies. The drying of packed beds have been extensively studied experimentally, but a detailed mathematical model of ... Read More

Simulation of Through Air Drying in Tissue Paper in a Papermaking Process

K. Rezk1, B. Sjöstrand1
1Institution of engineering and chemical sciences, Karlstad, Sweden

Water removal during paper and board manufacturing is an intensive energy process. The dewatering process generally consists of four stages wherein the last stage is comprised by thermal drying in where remaining water in fibres are evaporated on steam-heated cylinders. The thermal ... Read More

An Analysis of the Synchronous Transport Phenomena Involved in Pasta Drying Process

G. Adduci1, E. Manoli2, E. Cardaropoli2, G. Coppola1, F. Petrosino1, S. Curcio1
1DIMES, Università della Calabria, Cosenza, Italy
2Barilla G. e R. Fratelli, Parma, Italy

This work is focused on the development of a physical-mathematical model capable of predicting the temperature and water content fields within a pasta sample which is exposed to a stream of drying air flowing under turbulent conditions. Therefore, the equations concerning the transfer of ... Read More
