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 application shows how a battery cell exposed to a hybrid electric vehicle drive cycle can be investigated with the Lithium-Ion Battery interface in COMSOL. This model predicts the battery behavior to make comparisons of the monitored properties. They can be used to understand the ... Read More
This example uses the Battery with Binary Electrolyte interface to study the discharge of a zinc-silver oxide battery. The electrochemical reactions in the positive and negative electrodes lead to changes in porosity and species concentration in the electrodes. The geometry is in one ... Read More
A surface mount resistor is subjected to thermal cycling. The difference in the thermal expansion of different materials will introduce stresses in the structure. The solder which connects the resistor with the printed circuit board is seen as the weakest link in the assembly. It ... Read More
This model example investigates the transport of reactants and water in a high-temperature PEMFC. The model includes mass and momentum transport phenomena in the flow channels, gas diffusion layers (GDLs), and porous electrodes, as well as electrochemical currents in the GDLs, the porous ...

A piezoelectric speaker, colloquially known as a piezo buzzer, is a type of piezoelectric transducer that uses a piezoelectric crystal attached to a membrane. The movement of the crystal induces bending of the membrane and thus generates acoustic pressure waves. This model simulates an ... Read More
Wind turbines are an increasingly popular source of renewable energy. As such, the design, analysis and manufacture of wind turbines are important to the energy industry. The turbine blades are critical components of a wind turbine. When generating electric power through rotation, they ... Read More
This model demonstrates a three-dimensional electrothermal analysis of a high-power insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) module. The module is analyzed in a time invariant on-state operating condition, with the current distribution resolved through the semiconductor dies, ... Read More
Electrical events, such as an overcurrent or overload, can seriously damage electrical circuits or power lines. To avoid expensive replacements of critical parts, circuit breakers can be installed. These mechanically interrupt the current flow or surge by moving a plunger as soon as a ... Read More
