Hydrogen Compression in COMSOL: Modelling Liquid Piston Systems

COMSOL-Based Multiphysics Modeling of Liquid Piston Hydrogen Compression for Marine and Industrial Applications By: Marina Konuhova, Institute of Solid State Physics, University of Latvia Recorded on 4 February 2026 as part of the first MarTe Technical Workshop. How can hydrogen compression systems be designed more safely and efficiently before they are built? Marina Konuhova shows how COMSOL-based multiphysics simulation can help model liquid piston hydrogen compression for marine and industrial applications. The talk connects several physical processes — heat, fluid flow and mechanical behaviour — to show how simulation can support early-stage design decisions and reduce development risks.
