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.
Classical MHD benchmark problem was solved analytically by J. Hartmann. He considered laminar incompressible flow between two planes (in planar duct) in transversal imposed magnetic field under next assumptions: * fully developed flow (far from inlet) * fluid properties are constant * ... Read More
The electrical insulation strength of gases is generally much lower than that of solids. Under normal operating conditions, electrical discharges—known as partial discharges—can occur in voids or cracks within a solid dielectric. This model simulates partial discharges in a spherical ... Read More
Power lines are commonly used as a means of transmitting electrical power across large distances. In this tutorial, towers transmitting high voltage three-phase AC power are modeled, and the resulting electric field is computed. The towers have two shielding lines. The model also ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates the Lumped Battery interface for modeling capacity loss in a battery. A set of lumped parameters are used to describe the capacity loss that occurs due to parasitic reactions in the battery, assuming no knowledge of the internal structure or design of the ... Read More
HowTo: Using the EC External I-Terminal The External Couplings in the CIR interface has two flavors that can be used. External I vs. U and External I-terminal. The former has two nodes (it represents a differential external voltage measurement) and when coupling to an EC Terminal ... Read More
The double barrier structure is of interest because of its application in semiconductor devices such as resonant-tunneling diodes. This verification example demonstrates the Schrödinger Equation interface to set up a simple 1D GaAs/AlGaAs double barrier structure to analyze the ... Read More
Interfacial failure or delamination in a composite material can be simulated with a cohesive zone model (CZM). A key ingredient of a cohesive zone model is a traction-separation law that describes the softening in the cohesive zone near the delamination tip. This example shows the ... Read More
Tutorial example of the RF heating of passive conductive implants (rod and screws) inserted in three vertebrae during MRI. The RF fields are locally enhanced in the proximity of a passive conductive implant resulting in the heating of the portion of tissue facing the implant's surface. Read More
This model demonstrates the simulation of the scattering of a plane wave of light by a gold nanosphere. The scattering is computed for the optical frequency range over which gold can be modeled as a material with negative complex-valued permittivity. The far-field pattern and losses are ... Read More
This conceptual example shows how to calculate critical points in models with contact. The model consists of two contacting arches modeled with the Shell interface. The contact problem is solved using the penalty method. The upper arch is loaded with displacement controlled edge loads ... Read More
