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 simulates the underground storage of CO2 in a part of the Johansen formation off the coast of Norway. The CO2 is injected using an injection well at a rate of 15 kg/s over a period of 25 years, after which the well is closed. The model is used to compute the spreading of CO2 ... Read More
In this example, which serves as a tutorial for contact analyses, the insertion of a snap hook in its groove is studied. A linear elastic material model is used. Read More
This example shows the modeling of a resin transfer molding (RTM) process for a wind turbine blade using the Two-Phase Flow, Level Set, Brinkman Equations interface. Resin is injected into a preform consisting of different composites with different anisotropic permeabilities. Read More
This model shows how you can implement a user defined hyperelastic material, using the strain density energy function. The model used is a general Mooney–Rivlin hyperelastic material model defined by a polynomial. In this example, you will see two material models based on the defined ... Read More
The Free Molecular Flow interface, available in the Molecular Flow Module, is an efficient tool for modeling extremely rarefied gases when the gas molecules move much faster than any geometric entities in the domain. For turbomolecular pumps, in which the blades move at speeds comparable ... Read More
In this tutorial model, a step thrust bearing is shape optimized to maximize the bearing capacity. A step thrust bearing consists of a stepped bearing surface on which the end of the shaft rotates. The entire assembly is submerged in a lubricant. The shaft collar is assumed to be ... Read More
Numerical modeling of Lamb waves, which belong to guided waves, is essential for the analysis and design of the structural health monitoring (SHM) systems for long range ultrasonic testing. The design of an SHM system based on guided waves consists of two main parts. In the first place, ... Read More
Hydrogen embrittlement refers to the degradation of metal ductility due to the absorption of hydrogen. The metal becomes more brittle and thus cracks might initiate at lower stress levels. It is important to estimate hydrogen concentration and the speed at which it diffuses into the ... Read More
This example demonstrates how to model the temperature distribution in a battery pack during a 4C discharge. The pack is constructed by first coupling two cylindrical batteries in parallel. Six parallel-connected pairs are then connected in series to create the full pack. (This is also ... Read More
This benchmark model computes the total force acting on a vibrating disc in the frequency and time domains and compares both results with expressions derived analytically. When the vibration amplitude is small enough that the system is linear the frequency and time domain results agree ... Read More
