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 example illustrates multiphase flow modeling in an airlift loop reactor. The reactor is filled with water and air bubbles are injected at the bottom through two frits. Due to buoyancy, the bubbles rise, inducing a circulating motion of the liquid. The model specifically investigates ... Read More
This model simulates the velocity of the ionic wind generated by a wire-to-wire corona discharge. Ionic wind, created by the movement of charged particles in an electric field, can be harnessed for various applications, including cooling electronic components and enhancing heat ... Read More
This example demonstrates how to set up the classical external-flow problem of solving for the high-speed, compressible, turbulent flow over the ONERA-M6 wing. The problem involves finding a steady-state solution of the flow field around the 3D, swept wing geometry, immersed in a ... Read More
The mass of an aluminum beam is minimized subject to a displacement constraint and a distributed load. The problem is solved using topology optimization with milling constraints. Read More
Many applications involve simulating the electromagnetic behavior of relatively thin material in voluminous domains. To save computer memory and processing time, the thin materials can be treated differently by resolving them with 3D meshes. Here, the modeling domain is a box filled ... Read More
Power inductors are a central part of many low-frequency power applications. They are, for example, used in the switched power supply for the motherboard and all other components in a computer. Computer simulations are necessary in the design of such inductors. This model calculates the ... Read More
This tutorial model analyzes the propagation of seismic waves through Earth's internal structure. The model uses a 2D axisymmetric geometry to represent the material discontinuities and the variation of properties through the concentric layers of the earth. A simplified earthquake ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how to use stationary polarization data to perform parameter estimation of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) model. The model, defining a 5-layer membrane electrode assembly (MEA) is two-dimensional and includes electronic and ionic charge ... Read More
The purpose of the app is to demonstrate and simulate the use of cyclic voltammetry. You can vary the bulk concentration of both species, transport properties, kinetic parameters, as well as the cycling voltage window and scan rate. Cyclic voltammetry is a common analytical technique ... Read More
This example shows how to perform parameter optimization on a lens system. The optimization is motivated by the replacement of one of the glasses in a prior optical prescription with a new glass having slightly different optical dispersion coefficients. The control parameters are the ... Read More
