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.
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
In electromagnetic simulations, such as transformers and converter stations, one often needs to include geometrically thin conductive layers. Explicitly meshing these thin layers can be computationally expensive and numerically challenging, especially when the layer thickness is much ... Read More
A magnetic diaphragm is a flexible, thin structure that interacts with magnetic fields to perform mechanical or sensing functions. When subjected to an external magnetic field, the diaphragm deforms due to magnetomechanical interactions, converting magnetic energy into mechanical ... Read More
This case shows how to simulate moisture transport in a homogeneous wall under isothermal conditions. With this assumption, an analytical solution can be calculated. The homogeneous layer is initialized in moisture balance. At the beginning of the simulation, the relative humidity of ... Read More
This model illustrates the working principle of an axial homopolar induction bearing. An electrically conducting rotor rotating in a magnetic field produced by a permanent magnets induces eddy currents on the conducting rotor. The eddy currents, in turn, produce a magnetic field that ... Read More
In this model, a linear magnetic gear system with a gear ratio of 11:4 is modeled. The liner magnetic gear is assumed to be infinitely long with the modular structure that is repeating on either side. Only a single modular section is modeled by using the customized linear periodic ... Read More
This example shows how to set up an ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) as an actuator for a robotic manta ray. Two IPCM beams are integrated into the fin and can be controlled independently. The chemomechanical effect is achieved with the Shrinkage and Swelling multiphysics ... Read More
This example models a small reverse osmosis water desalination unit. The unit consists of a spirally wound semi-permeable membrane through which the water is forced under high pressure. The membrane retains the salt, such that on the permeate side fresh water is produced and on the ... Read More
This app simulates sedimentation of particles or agglomerations of particles in a solution. The distribution of particles or agglomerations of particles is taken into account. Read More
Topology optimization is associated with extreme design freedom which can yield extreme performance. The designs can be easier to manufacture by using milling constraints, at some cost to the performance. This example considers the case of a torsion sphere which is known to feature a ... Read More
