The Application Gallery features COMSOL Multiphysics® tutorial and demo app files pertinent to the electrical, structural, acoustics, fluid, heat, and chemical disciplines. You can use these examples as a starting point for your own simulation work by downloading the tutorial model or demo app file and its accompanying instructions.
Search for tutorials and apps relevant to your area of expertise via the Quick Search feature. Note that many of the examples featured here can also be accessed via the Application Libraries that are built into the COMSOL Multiphysics® software and available from the File menu.
This model exemplifies the analysis of strong wind flow around a solar panel and the corresponding structural displacement due to the wind's load. The solar panel is located in an array of equally spaced identical panels, which allows for the assumption that the periodic flow conditions ... Read More
This model aims to demonstrate how a multilayer insulation can affect the temperature distribution of a satellite orbiting around the Earth. It is based on the Spacecraft Thermal Analysis model available in the Application Library. Read More
Tutorial example of the RF heating of passive conductive implants (rod and screws) inserted in three vertebrae during MRI. The RF fields are locally enhanced in the proximity of a passive conductive implant resulting in the heating of the portion of tissue facing the implant's surface. Read More
This tutorial simulates a standard test and benchmark model for perfectly matched layers (PMLs) as absorbing boundary conditions in the time domain. It involves the propagation of a transient Gaussian pulse with no flow. The Pressure Acoustics, Transient interface is used together with ... Read More
This is a full vibro-electroacoustic simulation of a balanced armature transducer (BAT also known as a receiver in some industries) which is a high performance miniature loudspeaker often used in hearing aids and other in-ear audio products. The model is set up using a linear frequency ... Read More
When two coherent light beams intersect, an interference pattern appears. If this occurs in a material that is sensitive to light, with intensities greater than a certain exposure threshold, the interference pattern is recorded in the material as a modulation of the refractive index and ...

This tutorial simulates the turn-on transient (forward recovery) of a simple PIN diode, based on the book "Fundamentals of Power Semiconductor Devices" by B. J. Baliga (p. 242, 2008 edition). The diode is current driven with a constant ramp rate of 1e9, 2e9 and 1e10 A/cm^2/sec and a ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how to model ultrasound imaging in human tissue using an imaging probe composed of piezoelectric arrays that generate steered and focused beams. Simulating this process requires a transient multiphysics model to accurately capture sound generation, propagation, ... Read More
A 3D model of an acoustic trap in a glass capillary with a bias flow through the capillary. The acoustics is actuated by an oscillating electric potential across a piezoelectric transducer, inducing mechanical vibrations in the solid, and an acoustic pressure field in the fluid. The heat ... Read More
Acoustic streaming, a steady flow induced by sound waves, has been used in biomedical and engineering industrial., Examples include enhancement of convective heat transfer, ultrasonic cleaning, localized micro-mixing, hemolysis of blood cells, and micropumps etc. The phenomenon is ... Read More
