Chemical Reaction with EM Loss

      Hi. I'm trying to design a model for a transient thermal solution of a material being heated in a microwave. Upon heating it undergoes a chemical transformation, releasing bound water. I have the electrical field in HFSS and a thermal profile in Icepak. Is it possible to add a chemical reaction in Icepak, or is there another way I could set up the simulation so that I can get the results of the chemical change? Thanks.

      Hi,

      Chemical reactions cannot be modeled in Icepak, for that you might have to check in Fluent. However, material properties like conductivity can be defined as a function of temperature in Icepak to mimic the reaction.
