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.
This model simulates convective heat transfer in a channel filled with water. To reduce memory requirements, the model is solved repeatedly on a pseudo-periodic section of the channel. Each solution corresponds to a different section, and before each solution step the temperature at the ... Read More
Reflow soldering is an important process in IC packaging. In reflow soldering, the solder materials are melted to create joints between electrical components and the PCBs for structural and electrical connections. This model demonstrates the process of attaching chips to a PCB by reflow ... Read More
This model computes the particle flux, number density and pressure on the surface of a plate that rotates in a highly directional molecular flow. The results obtained are compared with those from other, approximate, techniques for computing molecular flows. Read More
This model shows how to use the Metal Processing Module and the Optimization Module to calibrate parameters of a phase transformation model against TTT (Time Temperature Transformation) data. Read More
The hydrolysis of propylene oxide into propylene glycol is an important chemical process with 400,000 metric tons produced worldwide each year. Propylene glycol finds wide application as a moisturizer in foods, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. In this example, the startup phase of a ... Read More
This app demonstrates the following: Visualization of a periodic structure from a unit cell Resetting some or all input parameters Export the resulting material properties as an MPH-file or an XML-file that can be imported to a COMSOL Multiphysics session Periodic microstructures are ... Read More
Prismatic lithium cells are widely used in electric vehicles and battery energy storage systems. This example demonstrates the use of the Lithium-Ion Battery interface for a full 3D prismatic battery equipped with two jelly rolls. The model defines a full so-called Newman model but ... Read More
This tutorial introduces a workflow typical of creating geometry for simulation by using Sketch mode to draw complex shapes. Follow the step-by-step instructions to draw the geometry for the analysis of a light bulb. The physics setup is described in the model Free Convection in a Light ... Read More
Heating of an object from alternating regions is one example where the modeling technique of activating and deactivating physics on domains can be useful. This model demonstrates how you can apply this technique using LiveLink™ for MATLAB®. Read More
You can use assembly meshing to reduce the number of mesh elements in your model, which is especially useful for conjugate heat transfer simulation in cases where the fluid domains can be handled with swept mesh. These models demonstrate how to use form assembly and discontinuous meshes ... Read More
