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 demonstrates the ability to simulate Multibody Dynamics in COMSOL. It comprises a multilink mechanism that is used in an antique automobile as a gearshift lever. It was created out of curiosity to find out how large forces are on the individual components. The model uses ... Read More
This tutorial model compares the results between a domain approach and the Thin Moisture Barrier feature to simulate the moisture transport in a wall with a vapor barrier. The Thin Moisture Barrier feature neglects diffusion, two studies are proposed, a first one where diffusion is ... Read More
An interesting question was raised in the 1950s by the mathematician Ernst Straus that, in an arbitrarily shaped empty room with side walls made of perfect mirrors, will a point light source always illuminate the whole room? This question was answered by the Nobel Prize-winning ... Read More
A demultiplexer is a device that directs different frequency bands to different outputs. In this tutorial model, we will design a demultiplexer by performing shape optimization on all initial circular boundaries in a sonic crystal (phononic crystal) configuration. The model uses shape ... Read More
This model presents a way to compute projected area using the Surface-to-Surface Radiation interface of the Heat Transfer Module. By computing illuminated area from a set of directions on a discretized sphere, it is possible to interpolate the projected area onto any angle of incidence. ... Read More
This space-dependent model describes a stirred semibatch reactor used for producing antibody–drug conjugates. The reactor is set up in 3D and the conjugation reactions, turbulent flow, and concentration fields are simulated as functions of time. The resulting yield and drug-to-antibody ... Read More
This example showcases a helical planetary gear train composed of a sun gear, ring gear, carrier, and five planet gears. Three cases are analyzed by in turn fixing the ring gear, sun gear, and carrier. For each configuration, a transient multibody analysis is performed to determine the ... Read More
This example exemplifies how to model the impedance of a waveguide of varying cross sectional area. A more detailed description of the phenomenon and the modeling process can be seen in the blog post "Computing the Impedance of a Corrugated Waveguide". Read More
This tutorial shows how to simulate coupled heat and moisture transport in a wall made of a load bearing and an insulation layer. Moisture and temperature conditions vary with time on both sides of the wall and rain loading is included. The 1D model is a benchmark test defined in ... Read More
A ribbon mixer (sometimes referred to as a ribbon blender) is a mechanical device that is commonly used to mix different types of granular material. Ribbon mixers are widely used across various industries including food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemical industries, agriculture, ... Read More
