This model illustrates the use of COMSOL Multiphysics for modeling of ionic current distribution problems in electrolytes, in this case in human tissue. The problem is exemplified on a pacemaker electrode, but it can be applied in electrochemical cells like fuel cells, batteries, ... Read More
Corrugated circular aperture (conical) horn antennas are popularly used as feed horns for dish reflector antennas due to their low sidelobes and cross-polarization level. The excited TE mode from a circular waveguide passes along the corrugated inner surface of a circular horn antenna, ... Read More
A spherical water-rich load (potato) is placed on the rotating glass tray of a microwave oven some distance from the center of rotation. 1 kW of 2.45 GHz microwave power is applied via a waveguide feed. The plate rotates at 9 degrees per second. The heat transfer model involves the ... Read More
This model simulates the coupling of free-space laser radiation into waveguide modes using an optical grating coupler. The coupling efficiency and the radiation loss are calculated for different angles of incidence of the laser beam. Read More
This model demonstrates an efficient approach to simulating a thin, spherical, large radome using a 2D axisymmetric formulation with cubic discretization. The axisymmetric method captures full 3D behavior for azimuthally symmetric geometries at only a fraction of the computational cost. ... Read More
An axisymmetric 3D structure such as a conical horn antenna can be simulated in a fast and efficient way using only its 2D layout. In this model, the antenna radiation and matching characteristics are computed very quickly with respect to the dominant TE mode from the given circular ... Read More
This tutorial model explores the behavior of a microwave plasma torch. The plasma is generated within a dielectric tube inserted in a rectangular waveguide. The simulation solves the coupled equations for plasma transport and heating, microwave electromagnetic fields, fluid flow, and ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to use topology optimization with milling constraints to design a metalens that focuses a single wavelength to a point. This involves transferring the optimized results to another component so the result can be verified using an explicit geometry ... Read More
The first part of the application computes the modes for a straight step index fiber made of silica glass. In the second part, a step index fiber bend with a 3 mm radius of curvature is analyzed with respect to propagating modes and radiation loss. It is shown how to find the power ... Read More
This example builds surrogate models with deep neural network (DNN) training to quickly estimate the performance of a microstrip patch antenna based on four design parameters: patch length, tuning stub length, dielectric constant of a substrate, and frequency. The model also simulates a ... Read More
