Batteries and Fuel Cells Materials Database

You are viewing the documentation for an older COMSOL version. The latest version is available here.

The Batteries and Fuel Cells materials database is included with the Batteries & Fuel Cells Module and contains the materials listed in Table 9-18. The material property groups (including all associated properties) are listed in Table 9-4.

Literature references are included as Comments entries in the Batteries & Fuel Cells Materials database. These can be viewed using the Properties window of the Model Builder after a material has been added to the model.
