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 applications where pressure waves and elastic waves propagate in porous materials filled with air both thermal and viscous losses are important. This is typically the case in insulation materials for room acoustics or lining materials in car cabins. Another example is porous materials ... 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
In acoustofluidics, acoustics is used to manipulate particles and fluids in microfluidic devices. This model demonstrates the phenomena of the inhomogeneous acoustic body force and how it can move a fluid with an inhomogeneous density due to a solute. The model is of a 2D cross section ...

A trimmer capacitor has a variable capacitance. One way of obtaining this is to use parallel facing electrodes with a variable overlap area. In this example, the capacitance can be changed by turning one electrode using a screwdriver. Typically a linear angular response is desired. ... Read More
This is a conceptual model of a microphone placed in an infinite baffle (flush mounted). The purpose is to determine the free-field level correction curve of the setup, which includes the exterior domain, microphone grid, and volume between the grid and the diaphragm. The microphone ... Read More
Modeling and simulation is useful for evaluating the feasibility of storing hydrogen underground. In this example of a geological formation, hydrogen is injected through an injection well at a rate of 1 kg/s over a period of 2 years, until it is ready to be extracted and discharged ... Read More
In this example, the etching of silicon in a CF4/O2 plasma reactor is studied using a global model. Parametric sweeps for ion energy and oxygen mole fraction are computed. Read More
One of the ways we can simplify and reduce the size and computational complexity of a finite element model is by using any symmetries present in a model. In this entry, you can find three practical examples highlighting how to exploit symmetries in RF or wave optics modeling. They all ... Read More
This model shows that the frequency response, i.e. admittance curve, of the SAW unit cell with IDT is in good agreement with the series resonance & antiresonance frequencies obtained from the eigenfrequency studies in the tutorial Surface Acoustic Wave Velocity Calculations from a ... Read More
The model illustrate the technique to calculate the magnetic stiffness in a 3D geometry of a permanent magnet axial magnetic bearing. The Magnetic Fields physics is used to model the bearing and compute the magnetic forces. The Deformed Geometry and Sensitivity physics are used to ... Read More
