Decarbonizing the chemical industry is a key challenge on the path to CO2 neutrality. For this reason, we are working in the BMBF-funded future cluster ETOS on the transformation of the chemical industry towards more climate-friendly lectrochemical technologies.

In this work, the wetting of abstract gauze structures is to be investigated using numerical simulation with OpenFOAM. In particular, the influence of different orifice geometries and wetting properties on the forming phase boundary and a possible bubble formation at too high differential pressures shall be investigated.
