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 example demonstrates simulation of a turbulent flow in a geometry with an air filter. Porous material of the filter induces an abrupt pressure drop and drastic increase of turbulence level inside the filter. Read More
This model is used to demonstrate the solution to a classic brainteaser in electromagnetics. A long loop of wire is connected to a source and a receiver, which are placed 1 meter apart. The objective of the model is to compute how long it takes for the receiver to sense when the source ... 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
The modal dispersion in a metamaterial can be engineered by changing the type of material and dimension of the composing unit cells. For instance, a periodically organized subwavelength metal–dielectric layered metamaterial exhibits an anisotropic dispersion characteristic in the ... Read More
This example of a plasmonic waveguide filter shows that the waveguide rejects the electromagnetic radiation of the wavelength between 1.4 um and 1.6 um, but allows the rest of the wavelength. The silver material can be modeled using the Drude-Lorentz approximation, with ε∞ = 3.7, ωp = 13 ... Read More
Electrochromic devices (ECDs) may be employed in ”smart” windows, for instance in buildings or motor cycle visors, where the transparency of the device can be controlled by applying a voltage. ECDs make use of the fact that the absorbance of visual light for a chemical species in a ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to use topology optimization with milling constraints to design a metalens that focuses a single wavelength to a point. This involves transferring the optimized results to another component so the result can be verified using an explicit geometry ... Read More
An evanescent mode cavity filter can be realized by adding a structure inside of the cavity. This structure changes the resonant frequency lower than the dominant mode of the unfilled cavity. A piezo actuator is used to control the size of a small air gap which provides the tunability of ... Read More
This model computes the lightning-induced voltage on an overhead line positioned above a lossy ground. It includes parameters like the inclination angle of lightning channels and soil conductivity, enabling straightforward analysis of their impacts. The calculated induced voltage aligns ... Read More
In signal integrity (SI) applications, time-domain reflectometry (TDR) is a useful technique for analyzing the discontinuity in a signal path by observing the reflected signal strength. The reflected signal distorts the input pulse mainly by impedance mismatch if there is no external ... Read More
