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.
A classic way of estimating pi is by using the Monte Carlo method. This involves randomly placing points inside a square and counting how many lie within a circle inscribed in the square. The ratio of points inside the circle to the number of points in total can be used to approximate ... Read More
These example models demonstrate using the Image to Curve add-in, which is included in COMSOL Multiphysics®. One example shows a simple structural analysis. An image of an H-beam is imported to a work plane and then extruded. A distributed load is applied to the beam's top ... Read More
Indentation tests are commonly used to evaluate the safety of battery cells by assessing the risk of internal short circuits under external mechanical loads. This example demonstrates how to set up such a test, in which an indenter is pressed onto a battery cell, causing large ... Read More
This document explains how to install and run COMSOL Multiphysics® and COMSOL Server™ with Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud™ (EC2™). This requires that you have first acquired a Floating Network License (FNL) or COMSOL Server License (CSL) from COMSOL. The license manager ... Read More
Fluence rate is a key parameter for ultraviolet (UV) water purifier. It describes the amount of radiation that pathogens absorb and is then directly related to the disinfection level of the purifier. The aim of this example is to demonstrate the fluence rate calculation with the ... Read More
The example shows how to generate a discharge model from the Reaction Engineering interface with a self-defined discharge chemistry. It reproduces the library model 127181 (Double-Headed Streamer in Parallel-Plate Electrodes). Read More
Beam theories are well-developed for slender structures with homogeneous materials and isotropic cross-sections. The traditional beam theories do no apply to beams made of different materials in the cross-section. Therefore, a homogenization-based numerical model is needed to compute ... Read More
The model illustrate the technique to calculate the magnetic stiffness in a 3D geometry of a permanent magnet axial magnetic bearing. The Magnetic Fields physics is used to model the bearing and compute the magnetic forces. The Deformed Geometry and Sensitivity physics are used to ... Read More
For models with acoustic-structure couplings it is necessary to calculate the left eigenvectors to use the Frequency Domain, Modal solver. The model shows the necessary changes to the default settings of the eigenfrequency solver. Read More
This tutorial model demonstrates the use of the features for heat transfer in layered shells, to account for the curvature of the layers when applying heat fluxes and heat sources. The results obtained with the Heat Transfer in Shells interface applied to a boundary (with extra ... Read More
