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.
In a cylindrical or prismatic battery cell, the active layers, current collector metal foils and separators are wound into a “jelly roll”. Additional tabs (metal strips) are welded to the current collector foils in order to conduct the current to the exterior of the cell can. The ... Read More
Acoustic droplet ejection is a non-contact, highly controllable method for liquid handling emerging in applications such as printing, biomedical, semiconductor assembly, and mass spectroscopy. The modeling approach assumes separation of acoustic and flow time scales. First, a focused ... Read More
This example models the flow and mass transport in the channels and the gas diffusion layer (GDL) of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell. The cathode electrode reaction is modeled as a boundary condition, where the local current density depends on the overpotential and the local oxygen ... 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
Diffusion-induced stress in lithium-ion battery electrode materials can occur as a result of compositional inhomogeneities during lithium intercalation in the host material particles. These stresses are important since the electrode host material can undergo significant volume changes ... Read More
This example model simulates the long-path echo of trumpet sounds reflected from a building 500 m away. The echo can only be heard at night because of the acoustic ray refraction in the atmosphere with different temperature profiles. The model is solved using the ray tracing in the ... Read More
The powder compaction process is becoming common in the manufacturing industry, thanks to its potential to produce components of complex shape and high strength. In this example, the compaction of iron powder to form an axisymmetric rotational flanged component is analyzed with capped ... Read More
This model uses the Optimization interface to solve the inverse problem for determining the spatially variable hydraulic conductivity on a discretized quadratic grid from a number of aquifer pump tests. Because the number of observations is smaller than the number of unknown parameters, ... Read More
Headphones are closely coupled to the ear, and so it is not possible to measure their sensitivity in a classical acoustic free-field setup used for loudspeakers. The measurement requires the use of artificial heads and ears to accurately represent the usage conditions. This model shows ... Read More
This example replicates the results of the Jelly Roll tutorial example using a flattened representation of the wound spiral-based geometry. See that model entry for details on the background, original geometry, materials, and the general physics setup. Mapping the original problem to a ... Read More
