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 is about the modeling of the fiber drawing process. Thermal fiber drawing is a process in which a comparatively thicker structure is heated and drawn into extended lengths of microstructured fiber. This process is done by passing them through the furnace and pulling them ... Read More
This example studies heat transfer in a composite two-dimensional structure. Four materials with distinct thermal conductivities k compose the structure. The top and bottom boundaries are facing environments respectively at 0°C and 20°C. The temperature distribution and the heat flux ... Read More
This tutorial illustrates how to use built-in variables and operators, for the evaluation of the bulk temperature along a geometry like a channel, a pipe or a chimney, in a nonisothermal flow in 2D and 3D. The bulk temperature may be needed to compute the heat transfer coefficient for an ... Read More
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
A journal bearing is composed of an outer cylinder (bearing) wrapped around an inner rotating journal (shaft), with a lubricant separating the two. Under certain operating conditions, cavitation can occur between the bearing and the journal, leading to component damage and failure. ... Read More
This example shows how to model carbonation, which is a type of sparging. Sparging is a mass transfer process between a gas and a liquid that is common in industry (such as beverage carbonation and photobioreactor applications) and at home (aquarium aeration). In the carbonation model, ... Read More
In this example, phase transformation data and phase material properties are imported from JMatPro, and used to compute CCT curves. Dilatometry curves (axial thermal strain) are computed across a range of cooling rates. Read More
A lab-on-a-chip platform can be realized on a rotating disc by designing channels and other features to use the Coriolis or centrifugal forces to manipulate the flow. These forces are controlled by changing the angular velocity of the disc, so the platform is programmed by using a ... Read More
The present example simulates the steady-state flow in a radial pump using the mixing plane methodology. It solves for the averaged flow resulting from different blade positions of the rotor, thus circumventing the need to perform costly time-dependent simulations. Read More
This tutorial model illustrates the use of the nucleate boiling heat flux features to compute the transient cooling of a cylindrical rod plated with nickel, and immersed in a pool of boiling water. The temperature and heat flux results obtained with a 3D time-dependent computation, with ... Read More
