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.
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
This example models a solid oxide electrolyzer cell wherein water vapor is reduced to form hydrogen gas on the cathode, and oxygen gas is evolved on the anode. The current distribution in the cell is coupled to the cathode mass transfer of hydrogen and water and momentum transport. Two ... Read More
Deposition of metallic lithium on the negative electrode in preference to lithium intercalation is known to be a capacity loss and safety concern for lithium-ion batteries. Harsh charge conditions such as high currents (fast charging) and/or low temperatures can lead to lithium plating. ... Read More
The copper current collector on negative graphite electrodes in lithium-ion batteries have been seen to dissolve at over discharge. This can be a safety concern as the dissolution damages the current collector irreversibly and dissolved copper ions can redeposit and form dendrites. ... Read More
The model simulates atmospheric corrosion of a galvanic couple, comprising of an Al-Co-Ce metallic coating and an aluminum alloy, which is in contact with electrolyte film of 100 micrometer thickness. The corrosion inhibitors are released from the metallic coating and are transported ... Read More
This example models galvanic corrosion between two different phases in a magnesium alloy for a representative cross-sectional microstructure configuration. The Phase Field interface is used here to model dissolution of a constituent phase leading to topological changes. The electrode ... Read More
This tutorial models the cathodic protection of an oil rig structure during a time period of 15 years. As a result of the consumption of the sacrificial anodes, the protective capabilities system are reduced over time. The anode shape change in the model is defined by using the Level ... Read More
For several high-precision applications, especially in hydraulic systems and fuel injectors, micro bores are needed. In most cases the shape of the injection hole, especially the edge rounding, has a significant influence on the atomization of fluids and therefore on the combustion ... Read More
In a redox flow battery electrochemical energy is stored as redox couples in the electrolyte, which is stored in tanks outside the electrochemical cell. During operation, electrolyte is pumped through the cell and, due to the electrochemical reactions, the individual concentrations of ... Read More
This model demonstrates the use of moving meshes in the application of copper electrodeposition on circuit boards. In these environments, the presence of cavities or 'trenches' are apparent. The model makes use of the Tertiary, Nernst-Planck interface for electrodeposition to keep track ... Read More
