- The use of digital tools for design is becoming a more common approach to engineering solutions. In many instances it is more cost effective than iterating laboratory measurement set-ups through estima-tion and trial and error. Numerical simulation software when properly applied helps to constrain the field of consideration by focusing resources on a starting point closer to the solution. However, numer-ically simulated physics is neither exact and results must be validated either by available theory and/or empirical measurement. This thesis utilizes numerical simulations with COMSOL Multiphysics and compares them with experimental measurements for a high-power heat exchanger. The development of the simulation and experimental set-up are described, and an outlook is offered based on results and observations. Future development is given by the author and CFS as recommendation for the continued research of this technology and its applications.
