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 shows how to use the Optimization Module to find a coil geometry giving a uniform magnetic field on axis and minimal field near the axis ends. Read More
The topology optimized Tesla microvalve is used as an inspiration for an initial geometry. Second order Bernstein polynomials are used to perturb the shape of the geometry. The resulting design is remeshed in the deformed configuration and the performance is investigated for a range of ... Read More
The response of a millimeter wave with frequencies of 35 GHz and 95 GHz is known to be very sensitive to water content. This model utilizes a low-power 35 GHz Ka-band millimeter wave and its reflectivity to moisture for noninvasive cancer diagnosis. Since skin tumors contain more ... Read More
This example of a dipole antenna array demonstrates a cost-effective analysis using the Boundary Element Method (BEM). When dealing with a large array made of metallic radiators, the Finite Element Method (FEM) would necessitate greater computational resources. The simulation results ... Read More
This is a simple yet powerful simulation app for designing a two-dimensional reflective metalens. This metalens consists of a array of glass nanopillars on a metal substrate. Initially, the app determines the optimal grating parameters for a specific wavelength and calculates the ... Read More
An electron gun must be able to draw a sufficient current and accelerate the electrons to the desired speed. The first part of an electron gun geometry presents unique design challenges because the emitted electron speeds are usually lowest there, and therefore the space charge density ... Read More
This is an example of optimal control, where the input heating power to a rod is optimized to give a certain temperature on the outside of the rod. This is where the maximum water temperature occurs, while the minimum occurs at the center. Therefore this problem corresponds to the ... Read More
For an electrochemical reaction to occur, the reacting species usually needs to adsorb to the electrode surface before undergoing reduction or oxidation, after which the resulting product species desorbs back into the electrolyte. If the rate of adsorption or desorption is slow in ... Read More
This tutorial models the acoustic behavior of a loudspeaker driver mounted in a bass reflex enclosure. The enclosure, sometimes called the cabinet, alters substantially the sensitivity and radiation characteristics of the loudspeaker and it is why it is usually considered part of the ... Read More
This example demonstrates how to optimize the thickness of a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) mirror coating material for maximum reflectivity. To reduce the simulation time, a Layered Impedance Boundary Condition is used to model the thin coating material on top of the metallic ... Read More
