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 demonstrates how to couple the Lithium-ion Battery interface to the Phase Field interface for modeling electrode deformations. The example is based on the Lithium Plating with Deformation model, available in the Battery Design Module Application Library. As current is ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates the Lumped Battery interface for modeling capacity loss in a battery. A set of lumped parameters are used to describe the capacity loss that occurs due to parasitic reactions in the battery, assuming no knowledge of the internal structure or design of the ... Read More
A simple equivalent circuit model approach is presented for Nickel metal hydride batteries. The 0D model consists of resistor, capacitor, current source and state-of-charge based voltage source (SOC). An Arrhenius type dependence is used to account for self-discharge. All model ... Read More
This model exemplifies how to compute the internal temperature distribution in a prismatic battery during a high-rate charge. The electrochemistry is described by a a lumped two-electrode model, which is coupled to the heat transfer model. The heat transfer model includes the effects of ... Read More
In this example, a heterogeneous NMC (Nickel-Manganese-Cobalt) electrode structure is generated from tomography data using a Model Method. Time-dependent discharge and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) simulations are then made on the full 3D geometry. A solid mechanics ... Read More
These two apps can be run to set up a digital twin of an electric scooter battery. The Digital Twin Simulator of an Electric Scooter Battery (the "simulator" app) simulates the use of an electric scooter and generates battery current and voltage data over time. The Digital Twin ... Read More
This tutorial uses a “black-box” approach to define a battery model based on a small set of lumped parameters, assuming no knowledge of the internal structure or design of the battery electrodes, or choice of materials. The input to the model is the battery capacity, the initial state ... Read More
Solid-state batteries (SSB) are a promising technology that could suffer from internal mechanical stresses due to the growth and shrinkage of the electrodes within all-solid components. With this model, the charge-discharge cycling of an SSB is simulated with a focus on the interaction ... Read More
This example replicates the results of the Jelly Roll tutorial example using a flattened representation of the wound spiral-based geometry. See that model entry for details on the background, original geometry, materials, and the general physics setup. Mapping the original problem to a ... Read More
Prismatic lithium cells are widely used in electric vehicles and battery energy storage systems. This example demonstrates the use of the Lithium-Ion Battery interface for a full 3D prismatic battery equipped with two jelly rolls. The model defines a full so-called Newman model but ... Read More
