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 model analyzed the ALD deposition process of alumina film on the surface of a U-shaped structure. In this process, gaseous precursors are sequentially introduced to the reaction chamber and sequentially undergo a series of adsorption and chemical reactions on the surface. The ... Read More
This example shows how to set up self-contact for a coil spring. As the spring is compressed by a vertical force applied to one of its ends, it comes into to contact with itself and starts to rotate. Read More
Thermoelectric coolers are widely used for electronics cooling in various application areas, ranging from consumer products to spacecraft design. The thermoelectric modules are a common application of thermoelectricity in cooling engineering. They consist of several thermoelectric legs ... Read More
This tutorial model demonstrates the use of a background field in an electromagnetic scattering problem. Although this example is a boat hit by a radar, this same technique can be used in any situation where an isolated object meets electromagnetic waves from a distant source. For ... Read More
The heat transfer rate and hydraulic resistance of a three dimensional heat exchanger is optimized in the laminar flow regime. Read More
The first model describes the simultaneous flow of two immiscible fluids in porous media - here air displaces water in a multi-step inlet pressure experiment. We solve for the pressure and the degree saturation for the air and water within a representative volume and so track saturation ... Read More
Obtaining the steady-state performance is an essential task for the electric motor designer. As with many electromagnetic devices, the steady-state condition of an electric motor is when electric and magnetic field variations have stabilized to periodic variations. That is when ... Read More
This is a tutorial model of the coupling between flow of a fluid in an open channel and a porous block attached to one of the channel walls. The flow is described by the Navier-Stokes equation in the free region and a Forchheimer-corrected version of the Brinkman equations in the porous ... Read More
A Lorenz attractor can be described by a system of ordinary differential equations: the Lorenz system. In the early 1960s, Lorenz discovered the chaotic behavior of this system for certain parameter values and initial conditions. The solution, when plotted as a phase space, resembles the ... Read More
Permanent magnet bearings are used in turbomachinery, pumps, motors, generators, and flywheel energy storage systems, to mention a few application areas; contactless operation, low maintenance, and the ability to operate without lubrication are some key benefits compared to conventional ...
