Hi,
Plz help me out to know how to enter nonlinear rate expressions bcz comsol is not taking powers like 0.5 i.e c*c2^0.5.
I kindly request anyone of them to give a reply soon.
Thanx a lot..

Hi

Attached my solution to the problem; c is the variable. I used the flux condition

-k*C0*(c/C0)^a

where k is the heterogeneous rate constant (cm/s). You must use the scaling concentration C0 = 1 mol/L in the non-linear condition, because the units do not agree otherwise. Now, (c/C0)^a is dimensionless number. In order to make the flux in mol/(cm²·s), I multiply the expression again with C0, which makes the units correct. Basically, it is just question of dividing and multiplying with 1, but you must adjust the value of k to make the physical situation coincide with your experiments.

best regards
Lasse

thanx sir but i am using 4.4 licensed version of comsol,so the .mph is not opening.When i tried to replace c2 by c2/C0 it is showing error telling dat C0 is unknown variable.

You have to define C0, a and k in the global parameters list.

Respected Sir,
The following is the expression i wish to enter in the flux condition of transport of dilute species module.Plz let me know as where am i going wrong as comsol is showing error.
-0.476[mol^0.5/s*m^0.5]*(c[mol/m^3]*(c2[mol/m^3])^0.5)/(1+998*c[mol/m^3])
I will be extremely thankful to you
Regards

Thank you sir.I will definitely try by defining them in the global parameter list

Hi

What is that 998 in the denominator? Water density in kg/m^3? Anyway, I would write

-k*c*(c2/C0)^a/(1+K*(c/C0))

k = 0.476[m/s] (or whatever you need)
C0 = 1[mol/l]
a = any number
K = 998 (no unit)

Now the flux has unit mol/(m²·s) since c has the unit mol/m^3.
