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.
Free-surface calculations in the predefined flow interfaces are currently limited to time-dependent studies when using the built-in boundary conditions. Here, a stationary formulation following Romero et al. [1] is implemented using equation contributions. The attached slides describe ... Read More
This model presents a way to compute projected area using the Surface-to-Surface Radiation interface of the Heat Transfer Module. By computing illuminated area from a set of directions on a discretized sphere, it is possible to interpolate the projected area onto any angle of incidence. ... Read More
This model examines the behavior of a positive corona formed between concentric cylindrical conductors exposed to high applied voltages. The predicted current–voltage response closely matches the measurements. Rather than reproducing individual positive glow corona bursts, the setup ... Read More
This example demonstrates how to apply inverse uncertainty quantification (IUQ) using the Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) Module in COMSOL Multiphysics to calibrate uncertain material properties of a resistor based on measurement data. When experimental data such as resistance values are ... Read More
This model compares the solution to the model equations of a tubular reactor using Danckwerts inlet and outlet conditions. A second almost identical model is defined with extra inlet and outlet sections where no reactions occur. The concentration at the beginning of the inlet section is ... Read More
This app generates random surfaces based on imported CAD models. Surfaces can be created using Gaussian or uniform random fields, analytical expressions, or combinations of random and deterministic fields. The app provides extensive customization options for controlling roughness, ... Read More
Many robot vacuum cleaners nowadays are equipped with lidar for spatial mapping in order to design an optimal cleaning path and navigate in a room without bumping into obstacles. This model simulates the lidar of a robot vacuum cleaner and how it maps out the shape of the room using ... Read More
This model is used in the blog post "Why Do Golf Balls Have Dimples?". The trajectory of a golf ball is compared to the trajectory of a smooth ball using the Events interface and a system of ODEs in a 0D component. Read More
This example exemplifies how to model a Koch snowflake using the Application Builder. A more detailed description of the phenomenon and the modeling process can be seen in the blog post "Using the Application Builder to Create a Koch Snowflake". Read More
This example demonstrates the optimization of fiber orientation in a variable angle tow (VAT) laminate to maximize stiffness under prescribed loading and boundary conditions. The composite laminate consists of a single layer of carbon–PEEK composite with transversely isotropic material ... Read More
