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.
In a diode or a transistor, when a p-n junction is reverse-biased (the p-side is connected to a lower potential than the n-side), ideally, no current should flow. However, due to minority carriers (electrons in the p-side and holes in the n-side), a small current, known as the reverse ... Read More
Electron transport in low-temperature plasmas depends strongly on the electron energy distribution function (EEDF), which is often approximated as Maxwellian but is frequently nonequilibrium in reality. Incorporating nonequilibrium EEDF behavior into spatially dependent models often ... Read More
In electromagnetic simulations, such as transformers and converter stations, one often needs to include geometrically thin conductive layers. Explicitly meshing these thin layers can be computationally expensive and numerically challenging, especially when the layer thickness is much ... Read More
This model demonstrates a technique for partitioning a mesh based upon the element type. By first meshing with a boundary layer and then partitioning and creating a new mesh, it is possible to avoid modeling the interior volume of inductively heated parts, where the skin depth is small ...

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
A magnetic diaphragm is a flexible, thin structure that interacts with magnetic fields to perform mechanical or sensing functions. When subjected to an external magnetic field, the diaphragm deforms due to magnetomechanical interactions, converting magnetic energy into mechanical ... Read More
In this model, the transmitter (microstrip patch) and receiver (Yagi–Uda) antennas are modeled simultaneously in the FEM domain and are coupled with FEM–BEM coupling. The results are compared with the analytical Friis transmission formula. In detail, the emw and emw2 interfaces find out ... Read More
This example model demonstrates four different approaches for computing the integrals of fields over arbitrarily placed geometries that can be re-positioned without having to re-solve the model. This approach is also useful if you want to integrate the results of a model over different ... Read More
This model simulates the electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flow of a dielectric liquid around a wire electrode positioned between two parallel flat-plate electrodes. The ion transport is described using the Poisson–Nernst–Planck equations, while fluid motion is governed by the Navier–Stokes ... Read More
This single-phase induction motor model is used to compare with Testing Electromagnetic Analysis Method (TEAM) workshop problem 30. The Magnetic Fields physics interface is used to model the motor in the frequency domain at 60 Hz. The Velocity (Lorentz Term) feature is used to model the ... Read More
