Cylic Voltammetry

Hi

I want to model a 3 electrode electrochemical cell that I am using in cyclic voltammetry. I wanted to know if anyone had any suggestions on how to get start doing this using COMSOL as I am new.

I would like to be able to plot current vs potential and current vs time.

Thanks
J

Seems Comsol does not support electrochemistry simulations. You could directly use Nernst equation and Butler-Volmer equations in Comsol and do it.

COMSOL is actually quite well suited for electrochemistry modeling. See its Batteries and Fuel Cells Module, its Electrodeposition Module and the upcoming Corrosion Module.

Re: Cylic Voltammetry

Jean, I an new with Comsol and have similar question and am not sure about the right module to use: I have CNF (carbon nanofiber) based array and need to simulate cyclic voltammetry with potassium ferrycynide K4[Fe(CN)6]. Could you please give me some insight into this and selecting correct physics/ module?
Thanks,

Yes if you have a sample code to help get started that would be great.
Thanks
