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 shows how to model a simple Shockley diode— a four-layer PNPN semiconductor device. The Shockley diode is also named as thyristor. In this model, the Analytic Doping Model node is utilized to define the doping profiles for each domain. A time-dependent study is employed to ... Read More
This is a simple 1D model demonstrating ultrafast heat transfer simulations for femtosecond pulsed laser heating. Specifically, the following three models are implemented and compared with conventional Fourier heat conduction (known as parabolic one-step, POS): Hyperbolic one-step ... Read More
This model presents the transient modeling of a coaxial magnetic bearing using permanent magnets. The coaxial magnetic bearing is advantageous over the conventional mechanical gear mainly because of minimum noise, maintenance free operation, overload protection and physical isolation ... Read More
In microfluidic devices, it is a challenge to mix different fluids. One method is to use acoustic streaming to create a flow which enhances the mixing of two fluids. In this model, the vibrations of PDMS structures in a channel induces fast acoustic streaming used for mixing a diluted ... Read More
Modeling and simulation is useful for evaluating the feasibility of storing hydrogen underground. In this example of a geological formation, hydrogen is injected through an injection well at a rate of 1 kg/s over a period of 2 years, until it is ready to be extracted and discharged ... Read More
These two example models demonstrate how state variables (new in COMSOL Multiphysics® version 5.5) can be used to define and use history-dependent variables. Learn more in the accompanying blog post: "How to Use State Variables in COMSOL Multiphysics®" Read More
This small tutorial model studies energy conservation in a small conceptual test setup. The model has an inlet and outlet (modeled using ports) and a Helmholtz resonator with a very narrow neck. The acoustics in the narrow neck are modeled with Thermoviscous Acoustic for a detailed ... Read More
Turbulent flow, SSG-LRR interface is used to analyze fully developed turbulent flow in an axially rotating pipe and in a swirling jet emanating from such a pipe. The resulting flow pattern in the pipe is characterized by slower-than-solid-body rotation. Axial velocity of the swirling jet ... Read More
This model demonstrates 3D topology and shape optimization for an extruded geometry. This can be achieved using equation-based modeling and extrusion operators. The model considers stiffness maximization of a beam subject to a constraint on the mass, but the method can be used with any ... Read More
