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.
Formally known as size separation in vibrated granular materials, the Brazil nut effect (BNE) (and sometimes the Muesli effect) is a phenomenon that causes large grains to separate from small ones and rise to the top of a granular bed under vibrations. This phenomenon can be studied ... Read More
The model estimates the AC breakdown voltage between parallel electrodes in air by simulating charge transport dynamics. To keep computations efficient, it is implemented in one dimension, though it can be adapted for different gases and extended to higher-dimensional setups. The ... Read More
In food industries, microwave heating is gaining attention over a conventional heating treatment because of several advantages such as precise process control, speed of heating, fast turn-on and turn-off time, etc. In this model, a high directional Yagi-Uda antenna is used to heat up ... Read More
This model demonstrates isoelectric focusing (IEF) of seven ampholytes in a column. The model is in 1D and is solved in a time-dependent simulation. Read More
This model simulates transition flow through a microchannel using the Transition Flow interface in COMSOL Multiphysics®, which solves the Boltzmann BGK equation. The analysis is carried out to understand the fluid flow behavior across five different pore-length (porosity) ... Read More
A highly simplified pedestrian bridge is for simplicity imagined to consists of a concrete slab on supported by three I-beams. The design is to be evaluated for peak acceleration due to walking. The model analyzes uncertainty in peak acceleration due to some material damping properties ... Read More
Tutorial model investigating a set of two competing reactions. The model demonstrates the natural modeling strategy for reaction engineering in COMSOL Multiphysics®. That is, how to go from chemical equations to space-dependent models of reacting flow with a minimum of work. Read More
The TSSG process, namely Top-Seeded Solution Growth, is a method used to grow SiC single crystals. It has the advantages of lower growth temperature and high crystal quality. This model introduces the simulation method of the TSSG process, obtains the temperature distribution of the ... Read More
