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.
Breaker and disconnector devices are widely used in AC substations in power systems.In this model, the Electrostatics Interface is used to simulate the electric potential and electric field in a 110kV 3-phase high-voltage switchgear operating at 50 Hz. A surrogate model is also trained ... Read More
This tutorial model of the Joule heating effect in a busbar demonstrates how to synchronize geometry between the AutoCAD® software and the COMSOL Multiphysics® software, how to modify the geometry from COMSOL Multiphysics®, and how to run a geometric parametric ... Read More
Thermoelastic damping, which arises when you subject a material to cyclic stress, is an important factor when designing MEMS resonators. The stress brings about deformation, where materials heat under compressive stress and cool under tensile stress. Thus, due to the resulting heat flux, ... Read More
Opto-acoustophoresis is a term used to describe the interplay between acoustics and optical fields. In most cases (including this) the optical field is heating up the material and therefore affecting the acoustic field. In this example of an acoustic trap a set of particle are trapped ... Read More
This model simulates arc welding of a titanium plate made from an alpha-beta titanium alloy. During a weld pass, the material experiences a thermal transient, including both heating and cooling. Phase transformations are modeled, and the evolution of the phase composition over time is ... Read More
When a droplet is placed on a substrate on which surface acoustic waves (SAWs) are traveling, the energy of the SAWs is transferred into the droplet to form an acoustic field. The transferred energy is attenuated and generates a streaming flow. This type of streaming enables contactless ... Read More
This example demonstrates the usage of current terminal to compute the resistive heating of a busbar. Read More
This app demonstrates the following: Importing measured data from a text file Handling measured data using methods Exporting the results to a text file Exporting the results as COMSOL Material Library file. The app is a companion to the Effective Nonlinear Constitutive Relations ... Read More
The model has its emphasis on heat transport in a very small heat exchanger that is commonly used in the field of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). In this case, it might be a reactive processes that needs heating. The heat exchanger itself is constructed by stacking several ... Read More
This model illustrates how to compute the torque of a three-phase squirrel-cage induction motor at various speeds. In the example the torque is computed by averaging the results from simulations performed on 2D cross sections at several locations along the induction motor. The 3D ... Read More
