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.
Superconducting materials have zero resistivity up to a certain critical current density, above which the resistivity increases rapidly. To model such a material, this example uses the Magnetic Field Formulation physics interface. The model was based on a suggestion by Dr. Roberto ... Read More
Surface plasmon-based circuits are being used in applications such as plasmonic chips, light generation, and nanolithography. The Plasmonic Wire Grating Analyzer application computes the coefficients of refraction, specular reflection, and first-order diffraction as functions of the ... Read More
This example considers the natural convection of air above a smoldering incense stick. This kind of flow often shows a transition from laminar to turbulent which is nicely visualized by the smoke produced by the slow burning of the incense. The model uses the Nonisothermal Flow, LES RBVM ... Read More
Plate reactors running under continuous conditions have emerged as candidates to replace batch reactors, primarily in fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals production. One of the advantages of the plate reactor design is that it allows for efficient temperature control of the reacting ... Read More
This tutorial minimizes the mass of a bracket that is synchronized from PTC Creo Parametric™ via the LiveLink™ interface. There are limits both for the lowest natural frequency, and for the maximum stress in a static load case. The size and position for a number of ... Read More
The Rowland circle is a circle of radius R that lies tangent to a concave curved diffraction grating of radius 2R. If the entrance slit of incoming light is positioned on this circle, then rays reflected by the grating will be focused at various points along the same circle based on ... Read More
Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is a process often used in the semiconductor industry to grow layers of high-purity solid material on top of a wafer substrate. CVD is achieved using many different techniques and across a range of pressures from atmospheric to ultrahigh vacuum (UHV/CVD). ... Read More
In this example, drug-release from a biomaterial matrix to damaged cell tissue is modeled. Specifically, a nerve guide delivers a regenerating drug to damaged nerve ends. The model involves detailed drug release kinetics, with rate expressions handling drug dissociation/association ... Read More
Classical MHD benchmark problem was solved analytically by J. Hartmann. He considered laminar incompressible flow between two planes (in planar duct) in transversal imposed magnetic field under next assumptions: * fully developed flow (far from inlet) * fluid properties are constant * ... Read More
A tubular centrifuge is a type of centrifugal separation device that is often used for separation of very fine solid particles from a liquid. It can be run in both a continuous and batch type configurations. The device usually consists of a cylindrical rotating bowl with a large aspect ... Read More
