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 models an oil reservoir with two horizontal wells. The reservoir contains two phases, water and oil. Oil is recovered by injecting water through the bottom well, so the oil production rate and the water-oil production ratio over time are computed. Read More
This example shows how to estimate the permeability of a porous material by creating a detailed fluid flow model in a small unit cell. The result of the model is a lumped permeability of the material, which can be used in homogenized models using Darcy's law or the Brinkman equations. ... Read More
This tutorial model uses a heat sink geometry from the Part Library. The tutorial shows different approaches to heat transfer modeling when studying the cooling of an electronic chip. In the first part, only the solid parts are modeled, while the convective airflow is modeled using ... Read More
The response of a millimeter wave with frequencies of 35 GHz and 95 GHz is known to be very sensitive to water content. This model utilizes a low-power 35 GHz Ka-band millimeter wave and its reflectivity to moisture for noninvasive cancer diagnosis. Since skin tumors contain more ... Read More
The flow around the Eppler 387 airfoil is computed with the SST turbulence model both with and without the transition model. The reuslts are compared with experimental values. Read More
This is a tutorial of a slot die coating process in 3D where the channel is obstructed. The example uses a two-phase flow phase-field method with a non-Newtonian power-law fluid. The effects on the film thickness of the channel obstruction can clearly be seen. Read More
This example treats the modeling of sub-surface flow where free convection in porous media is analyzed. The results are compared with published literature in the field. The model couples the momentum balance to an energy balance through an equation, dependent on temperature, being ... Read More
This model shows how to compute an array of borehole heat exchangers (BHEs) for shallow geothermal energy production. The BHEs are simplified as line heat sinks with a uniform heat extraction rate. The array is embedded into a layered subsurface model with groundwater flow in one of the ... Read More
This example uses the Shallow Water equations to model the impact of a water wave on a column. A body of water with a height of 0.3 meters is initially contained behind a gate. At the start of the simulation, the gate is suddenly released and the body of water forms a wave moving toward ... Read More
This model shows how to set up a simulation of flow through a fractured reservoir. The reservoir includes a discrete fracture network (DFN), where the fractures have a randomized distribution of position, size, orientation and aperture. The model uses the Discrete Fracture Network Add ... Read More
