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 shows how to simulate coupled heat and moisture transport in a wall. The wall is modeled considering an air flow between interior and exterior varying with time. The 1D model is the third benchmark test defined in HAMSTAD-WP2 Modeling for the validation of numerical ... Read More
Thermally induced transformations in solids may be modeled by using an Arrhenius law to express the dependence on temperature of the transformation rate. This tutorial model shows how to use the Irreversible Transformation subfeature, available under the Solid feature of the Heat ... Read More
This model shows how to simulate moisture redistribution inside a wall with capillary active interior insulation. The wall consists of three layers: brick, mortar and insulating material. At the beginning of simulation, there is a sudden change in vapor pressure and temperature at ... Read More
This model is used on "Heat Transfer with Radiation in Participating Media and the Discrete Ordinates Method" to compare quadrature sets used in the method of discrete ordinates. To assess the performance of quadrature sets in complex geometries, results of incident irradiation and ... Read More
This model shows three methods to focalise external irradiation with a convex glass lens made of either: Semitransparent Surface with no reflection. Refractive Interface following the Fresnel's relations. Dielectric Window absorbing ultraviolet and infrared radiations. Read More
This model aims to demonstrate how a multilayer insulation can affect the temperature distribution of a satellite orbiting around the Earth. It is based on the Spacecraft Thermal Analysis model available in the Application Library. Read More
A smoke exhaust duct in a building is analyzed. Radiation of a non-gray gas is accounted for with a Radiation in Participating Media interface and the Weighted Sum of Gray Gases Model (WSGG). The smoke exhaust duct consists of 25 mm plaster walls. Building codes require that the walls ... Read More
Inside of a combustion chamber, the gas mix behaves as a non-gray medium. Such media require a lot of data and computational resources to get results across the whole spectrum. The Weighted Sum of Gray Gases Model (WSGG) proposes an approach to model the non-gray gas mix as a sum of ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to vary the inlet temperature in a superheated steam drying process so as to minimize the time, while constraining both the energy consumption and the final moisture content. Read More
