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 model illustrates the use of COMSOL Multiphysics for modeling of ionic current distribution problems in electrolytes, in this case in human tissue. The problem is exemplified on a pacemaker electrode, but it can be applied in electrochemical cells like fuel cells, batteries, ... Read More
This is a template base model containing the physics, geometry and mesh of a lithium-ion battery, defined in 1D. The model makes use of four lithiation parameters which are used to define the relative balancing of the negative and positive electrodes, as well as global cell state of ... Read More
This is a simple yet powerful simulation app for designing a two-dimensional reflective metalens. This metalens consists of a array of glass nanopillars on a metal substrate. Initially, the app determines the optimal grating parameters for a specific wavelength and calculates the ... Read More
This example provides a walkthrough on how to simulate the basic radiated emission of a printed circuit board and its immunity response from outside noise. First, when one of the microstrip lines is excited, the crosstalk to an adjacent printed line and the radiated field, through an ... Read More
Solid-state batteries (SSB) are a promising technology that could suffer from internal mechanical stresses due to the growth and shrinkage of the electrodes within all-solid components. With this model, the charge-discharge cycling of an SSB is simulated with a focus on the interaction ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how to model the band-to-band tunneling across a p–n junction. The tunneling effect is imitated by defining the User-Defined Recombination domain feature which makes the electrons disappear from the conduction band on the n-side and holes disappear from the ... Read More
This model exemplifies how to compute the internal temperature distribution in a prismatic battery during a high-rate charge. The electrochemistry is described by a a lumped two-electrode model, which is coupled to the heat transfer model. The heat transfer model includes the effects of ... Read More
The purpose of this model is to visualize the electric potential in an electrochemical cell, for example a battery. This is done at OCV and during operation. In a battery, this would correspond to OCV, discharge, and recharge. The potential profile is explained both for cells with planar ... Read More
An automotive midwoofer is modeled using the lumped parameter approach. The electrical and mechanical components are modeled using a lumped electric circuit, which is coupled to a finite element model for the acoustics using the Lumped Speaker Boundary feature. The large signal ... Read More
The Drift Diffusion interface solves a pair of reaction/advection/diffusion equations, one for the electron density and the other for the mean electron energy. This tutorial example computes the electron number density and mean electron energy in a drift tube. Electrons are released due ... Read More
