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.
The "Smart Radiator Device," a multilayer structure, has the capability to control thermal emissivity at different temperatures. This multilayer structure is lightweight thus finds its application in spacecraft mission. The thermochromic vanadium oxide (VO2) material is the heart of ... Read More
The problem of a plane wave scattering off a cylinder-shaped object suggests the use of the 2D axisymmetric formulation. This can save computation time and reduce the memory usage compared to the model in 3D space. This example demonstrates the use of the built-in plane wave expansion ... 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
The liquid electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) typically consists of a lithium salt, such as LiPF6, dissolved in one or several solvents. Commercial LIBs commonly employ a mix of multiple hydrocarbon-based solvents along with additional additives. In an electrolyte consisting of ... 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
This application illustrates a modeling approach for deriving physically consistent simplified models in the Acoustics Module. The approach consists of converting complex sub-components to an impedance boundary condition and otherwise using simple acoustics throughout the COMSOL model. ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how to create domains for modeling inside and outside of an imported CAD assembly. You will also learn how to use the defeaturing tools for deleting details from the imported geometry. Read More
This model demonstrates how to optimize the charging profile of a battery using gradient based optimization. The optimization solver minimizes the time required for charging the battery from 0% to 90% state of charge, while at the same time constraining the amount lithium inventory lost ... Read More
This example demonstrates an app that utilizes the LiveLink™ interface for Inventor® to run simulations on CAD designs. Read More
