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.
During an internal short circuit of a battery, the two electrode materials are internally and electronically interconnected, giving rise to high local current densities. Internal short circuits may occur in a lithium-ion battery due to, for instance, lithium dendrite formation or a ... Read More
This model incorporates the transport and electrolytic reaction in the treatment of tumor tissue. Oxygen evolution at the anode produces protons, which lowers the pH, while chlorine production also leads to lowered pH through the hydrolysis of chlorine. One effect of a low pH is the ... Read More
The zinc bromine redox flow battery is an electrochemical energy storage technology suitable for stationary applications. Compared to other flow battery chemistries, the Zn-Br cell potentially features lower cost, higher energy densities and better energy efficiencies. In the cell ... Read More
This app can be used as a design tool to develop an optimized battery configuration for a specific application. The application computes the capacity, energy efficiency, heat generation, and capacity losses due to parasitic reactions of a battery for a specific load cycle. Various ... Read More
In a cylindrical or prismatic battery cell, the active layers, current collector metal foils and separators are wound into a “jelly roll”. Additional tabs (metal strips) are welded to the current collector foils in order to conduct the current to the exterior of the cell can. The ... Read More
Corrosion induced due to alternating current (AC) is evident in the oil and gas industry, particularly when a pipeline is in close proximity to the high power transmission lines. A numerical model presented here first evaluates the effect of direct current (DC) applied potential on ... Read More
This model demonstrates the Lithium-Ion Battery interface for studying the discharge and charge of a lithium-ion battery for a given set of material properties. The geometry is in one dimension and the model is isothermal. Battery developers can use the model to investigate the influence ... Read More
In this example, three parallel pipelines of length 68 km and a horizontal separation distance of 10 m between them are protected against corrosion by an impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) system using a series of anodes. Each anode is connected to all three pipelines, ... Read More
This model describes the behavior of a lithium-ion battery unit cell modeled using an idealized heterogeneous three-dimensional geometry. In contrast to the typical homogenized approach for describing porous electrodes, heterogeneous models define the actual shapes of the electrode ... Read More
Due to the large differences in length scales in a lithium-ion battery, with the thickness of the different layers typically being several orders of magnitude smaller than the extension in the sheet direction, a lithium-ion battery is often well represented by a one-dimensional model. ... Read More
