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.
A tweeter is a high frequency driver used in loudspeaker systems. An ideal tweeter will produce a constant sound pressure level at a given distance in front of the driver independently of frequency, that is, a flat response. Ideally the tweeter will also, to a certain degree, maintain ... Read More
In a polymer electrolyte membrane electrolyzer cell (PEMEC), the two electrode compartments are separated by a polymer membrane. Liquid water is fed to the anode side, forming oxygen gas on the anode, and hydrogen gas on the cathode side, respectively. The respective designs of the ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to simulate the propagation of guided waves in a dielectric S-bent optical waveguide. The model demonstrates that the phase approximation, required by the Electromagnetic Waves, Beam Envelopes interface, can be numerically calculated by solving an additional ... Read More
Powder compaction is a popular manufacturing process not only in powder metallurgy, but also in the pharmaceutical industry. The Capped Drucker–Prager model is commonly used for simulating the compaction processes of pharmaceutical powders, where the material properties depend on the ... Read More
This setup demonstrates how the characteristics of turbulent flow in a channel are modified by the presence of an adjacent porous region. Asymmetric velocity profiles, higher turbulence levels, and higher friction coefficients both at the solid wall and the fluid-porous interface are ... Read More
This tutorial model solves for a one-dimensional capacitively coupled plasma reactor in a mixture of argon/oxygen. Important aspects and strategies for modeling electronegative discharges are discussed. Read More
This tutorial models the thermal management of a polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell stack. Operating the stack with a similar temperature profile for all cells is important since an uneven temperature distribution may otherwise result in nonuniform water vapor condensation and ...

This tutorial models the intercoupled electrochemical reactions, charge and species transport as well as heat transfer in a polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell. For the gas flow fields, straight channels are used on the hydrogen anode side, whereas a mesh structure is used on ... Read More
This model defines a zero-gap alkaline water electrolyzer, where oxygen and hydrogen gas are evolved in porous gas diffusion nickel felt electrodes, placed adjacent to a porous separator (diaphragm). The geometry defines a unit cell of an electrolyzer stack, in turn comprising two full ... Read More
Removing halogen groups from hydrocarbons is an important reaction step in several chemical processes. One application is water purification. Other examples involve organic synthesis, where the removal of halogen groups serves as a starting point for carbon-carbon coupling reactions. ... Read More
