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.
Feeding a waveguide from a coaxial cable is a straightforward way to achieve electromagnetic waves inside a waveguide. Due to its small size and circular shape, the cable contributes significantly to the overall size of the problem. It is therefore necessary to keep the cable as short as ... Read More
An AC contactor is a particular type of magnetic switch device, which is activated by a primary coil fed by an alternating current. Unlike DC switches, such devices can suffer from a tendency to reopen when the AC current crosses zero. The addition of a shading coil that supports ... Read More
In this model, we show how to model Seebeck effect which works as a thermoelectric generator. Seebeck effect is a phenomena where the difference in temperature of a material leads to a potential difference. The potential drawn in this model was compared with the paper by Jaegle (Example ...

In this tutorial, the vibrational behavior of a small aluminum plate with four waveguide structures is analyzed. This is an example of a structural component located in a device where elastic waves are propagating, like a smart speaker, an electric motor, or a MEMS device. The plate can ... Read More
This model demonstrates the polarization properties for a Gaussian beam incident at an interface between two media at the Brewster angle. The model shows how to use the Electromagnetic Waves, Beam Envelopes physics interface with a User defined phase specification. Matched Boundary ... Read More
This tutorial presents a study of positive and negative corona discharges in dry air at atmospheric pressure. The discharges are sustained within two electrodes in a coaxial configuration by a high voltage DC source applied to the inner electrode. Two different types of models are used: ... Read More
An eigenfrequency study is used to find the resonance frequency and threshold gain for an oxide-confined, GaAs-based, vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL). The simulations are performed in two steps. A regular eigenfrequency analysis is first performed, to find good initial ... Read More
One-sided magnets are magnets designed to have both magnetic poles emerging from the same side of the magnet. This results in the magnetic flux being concentrated on one side of the magnet. These kinds of magnets are found in many applications from the common fridge magnet to particle ... Read More
This app demonstrates the following: Multiple components (1D and 3D) in a single app Using the same choice list in the app as in the model using Data Access functionality Output numerical results for a specific time step using a combo box The app combines the Ray Optics Module and ... Read More
The mutual inductance and induced currents between a single turn primary and twenty turn secondary coil in a concentric coplanar arrangement is computed using a frequency domain model. The secondary coil is modeled using a homogenized approach which does not explicitly consider each turn ... Read More
