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 tutorial example simulates the flow in a flat bottom mixer containing, agitated by a pitched four blade impeller, where the fluid is water, and flow is assumed to be turbulent. The flow in the mixer is modeled using the k-ε turbulence model, and a time-dependent simulation ... Read More
Phase separation occurs when a binary system is quenched from its stable, homogeneous one-phase state into the two-phase region of its phase diagram. The spontaneous separation of two immiscible fluids is sometimes referred to as spinodal decomposition. Each phase tends to separate into ... Read More
Modeling curing is important in a wide variety of applications such as for devices utilizing polymer materials, rubber materials, plastics, and concrete. Curing is usually an exothermic reaction. In the current example, curing of butyl rubber is studied in a 3D mold for an automotive ... Read More
This example studies the stationary state of free convection in a cavity filled with air and bounded by two vertical plates. To generate the buoyancy flow, the plates are heated at different temperatures, set in a range to keep the flow laminar. Read More
This example shows how to model induction hardening of a small steel pin. The ferritic-pearlitic pin is induction heated using a coil with a high frequency alternating current. The surface of the pin is thereby austenitized, and the pin is then water cooled to produce a hard, martensitic ... Read More
A thermoelectric leg is a fundamental component of a thermoelectric cooler (or heater). For example, a thermocouple is a thermoelectric module typically made of two thermoelectric legs: one made of p-type and of one n-type semiconductor material which are connected in series electrically ...

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 ...

This model of a two-story house can be used to examine a contaminant leak and the subsequent contaminant dispersion that occurs due to convection and diffusion. Airflow and recirculation within the home are dependent on vent placement, and flow velocity may also vary at each vent. ... Read More
Silicon carbide (SiC) epitaxial furnaces are a specialized equipment for the production and preparation of SiC epitaxial wafers. This example model demonstrates the process of preparing an SiC epitaxial wafer based on the physical vapor transport (PVT) method in a furnace. This involves ... Read More
Coriolis flowmeters, also known as mass flowmeters or inertial flowmeters, measure the mass flow rate of a fluid traveling through it. It makes use of the fact that the fluid's inertia through an oscillating tube causes the tube to twist in proportion to the mass flow rate. Typically, ... Read More
