BBQ¶
BBQ (Bus Bar Quench) is a 1D quench propagation simulation tool. One could choose to include heat exchange with helium bath, so in this case the tool is closer to 1D+1D simulation tool. We have two tools for this type of simulation as detailed below.

BBQ Source code¶
The tool is a Comsol model itself. Each model can be saved as .java file and this becomes the source code of the model.
