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 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
This example shows how to model prestressed bolts. The bolt geometry is taken from the Part Libraries. For comparison, one of the bolts is modeled using a thread contact formulation, whereas the other bolt is connected to the bolt hole by a pure continuity condition. The reduced ... Read More
This application shows how a battery cell exposed to a hybrid electric vehicle drive cycle can be investigated with the Lithium-Ion Battery interface in COMSOL. This model predicts the battery behavior to make comparisons of the monitored properties. They can be used to understand the ... Read More
Power lines are commonly used as a means of transmitting electrical power across large distances. In this tutorial, towers transmitting high voltage three-phase AC power are modeled, and the resulting electric field is computed. The towers have two shielding lines. The model also ... Read More
This example shows how to compute the critical buckling load in the presence of dead loads. A truss tower is supported by pretensioned guys. The pretension load and gravity on the truss are considered as dead loads, while the vertical load applied at the top of the tower is considered ... Read More
In this example, the Extended Barcelona Basic Model (BBMx) is used to model oedometer, uniaxial swelling, triaxial, and constrained swelling tests on bentonite clays in order to recover the hydromechanical characteristics of the soil samples. There is a good qualitative agreement ... Read More
A capacitor, in its simplest form, is a two terminal electrical device that stores electric energy when a voltage difference is applied across the terminals. The stored electric energy is proportional to the applied voltage squared and is quantified by the capacitance of the device. This ... Read More
Dialysis is a widely used chemical species separation method. One such example is hemodialysis, which acts as artificial kidneys for people with renal failure. In dialysis, only specific components are allowed to diffuse through the membrane, based on differences in molecular size and ... Read More
The model is defined as a benchmark case in norm 15026:2007 annex A. The purpose of the model is to calculate the temperature and moisture profiles at different times after a change in the external conditions (temperature and relative humidity) inside a wall material (kind of concrete). ...

This example simulates an oil droplet rising through a suspension. The suspension is initially stratified, with a dense layer between two clear layers. The droplet is initially located in the bottom clear layer. The particles in the suspension start to sediment toward the bottom of the ... Read More
