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 illustrates the use of the connecting features in the Heat Transfer in Solids and Heat Transfer in Shells interfaces, to couple them to a Lumped Thermal System interface. The results obtained with the solid and shell models are compared. Read More
This example studies heat transfer in a square column. Cold and hot temperature conditions are applied to the boundaries. Due to the symmetry of the problem, the geometry is simplified to half of the square. The temperature field is compared with the analytic data. This example ... Read More
This model performs a transient analysis of the temperature through a house wall. The wall is formed of different layers corresponding to the structure, insulation and plaster. On the exterior and the interior, the wall is exposed to thermal radiation and convective cooling. The results ... Read More
This tutorial model demonstrates the use of the multiphysics coupling feature Thermal Connection, Layered Shell, Edges. In this model, three layered shells are connected to heat domains by edges at difference locations related to the heat domains. The results obtained with the Heat ... Read More
Active aerodynamics systems actuate components on a vehicle dynamically to improve fuel efficiency, optimize cooling, and enhance stability. A drag reduction system (DRS) is an example of an active aerodynamic technology, which is often used in Formula 1® cars to overtake other cars ... Read More
The purpose of this model is to introduce the specular reflection in Surface-to-Surface Radiation using the ray-shooting algorithm. Different parameters are available to the user to yield better accuracy in the results when using the ray-shooting algorithm. The model is a standard ... Read More
Because the atmosphere is nearly transparent to wavelengths in the range 8 to 13 µm (atmospheric window) for a clear sky, it is possible to cool down a surface even during a sunny day. This model compares the temperature distribution on a concrete block exposed to ambient and solar ... Read More
Opto-acoustophoresis is a term used to describe the interplay between acoustics and optical fields. In most cases (including this) the optical field is heating up the material and therefore affecting the acoustic field. In this example of an acoustic trap a set of particle are trapped ... Read More
This model computes an electromagnetic-heated busbar with surface-to-surface radiation and compares the results with the busbar model without radiation. The surface emissivity of copper is varied between 0.1 (blank material), 0.3 (partially oxidized), and 0.7 (heavily oxidized). A more ... Read More
To understand the risk of coagulation and blood clot formation in an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), modeling and simulation can be used to study the blood flow through the AAA. In this example, blood is modeled as an Oldroyd-B fluid. While this is a generic example, if instead using ... Read More
