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.
Developments in the last decade have made circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED) the leading architecture for quantum computation. cQED is the solid-state version of cavity QED, which studies the basic light-matter interactions at the quantum level. This model examines one of the main ... Read More
This model illustrates an application that maximizes surface-to-surface radiative fluxes and minimizes conductive heat fluxes. A thermo-photo-voltaic (TPV) cell generates electricity from the combustion of fuel and through radiation. The fuel burns inside an emitting device that ... Read More
This model computes the ion energy distribution function (IEDF) for a commercial capacitively coupled plasma reactor. The results show good agreement with experimental data. Read More
The electron energy distribution function (EEDF) plays an important role in the overall behavior of discharges. In this example, the formation period of an Argon plasma is studied with special attention paid to the EEDF. The plasma is created within a 4 cm gap by a DC source voltage of 1 ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how an electrical circuit model of a MEMS resonator can be derived using the Parameter Estimation feature. The model is a modified Butterworth-Van Dyke circuit created using the Electrical Circuit interface and represents a Thin-Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator ... Read More
This tutorial simulates the turn-on transient (forward recovery) of a simple PIN diode, based on the book "Fundamentals of Power Semiconductor Devices" by B. J. Baliga (p. 242, 2008 edition). The diode is current driven with a constant ramp rate of 1e9, 2e9 and 1e10 A/cm^2/sec and a ... Read More
This example of a simple axisymmetric condenser microphone includes all the relevant physics and determines the microphone sensitivity as well as microphone capacitance for the specific simplified microphone geometry and material parameters. It solves a fully coupled multiphysics model ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to use the Magnetic Fields, Currents Only interface together with the Stationary Source Sweep with Initialization study to compute the inductance matrix of PCB coils with a number of 12. Read More
A goal for many applications is to predict physics in thin structures, such as shells, without modeling the thickness of the structure. This is because large aspect ratios can cause meshing and geometry analysis problems. This model demonstrates how to use the tangential derivative ... Read More
This example investigates the electrical and thermal characteristics of a plasma DC arc created in a point-to-plane configuration. The discharge is assumed to be in local thermodynamic equilibrium. The plasma is considered a conductive fluid medium and is modeled using a ... Read More
