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.
In this model, we use the Pressure Acoustics, Boundary Elements physics interface to analyze the acoustics of a generic head and torso simulator. This is a manikin head used to do standardized measurements for hearing aids, mobile phones, and headphones. The model showcases some ... Read More
This tutorial model demonstrates the use of the Moisture Flow coupling node to account for the Stefan flow in moist air, over an evaporation surface. The effects on the velocity field and vapor concentration are presented with different ambient temperature conditions. Read More
A simple model for groundwater contamination portrays a well that is bored into an aquifer. The aquifer consists of a partially saturated layer and a fully saturated layer. The model investigates how much of the contaminant ends up in the well after a contaminant is introduced in the ... Read More
A gate-all-around MOSFET consists of a nanowire with a gate electrode wrapped around the circumference. Since the entire nanowire forms the channel, this configuration provides the best possible electrostatic control of the channel and offers a good candidate for the miniaturization of ... Read More
A homopolar generator is composed of an electrically conductive rotating disc placed in a uniform magnetic field that is perpendicular to the plane of rotation. The motion of the conductor through the static magnetic field induces Lorentz currents in the disc. By connecting the outside ... Read More
This model evaluates the temperature distribution in 3 buried cables in a situation where the soil surface temperature is known. The temperature profile obtained with a thermal circuit approach for the cables is compared with a FEM approach. The thermal circuit properties are established ... Read More
Compliant mechanisms are attractive due to their simplicity, owing to their lack of hinges. In this model we show how to design a set of compliant pliers using topology optimization. The resulting design is post-processed using shape optimization, where the maximum stress is constrained ... Read More
This tutorial studies the deposition of amorphous silicon using an inductively coupled plasma reactor with a silane/argon gas mixture. It examines how the deposition rate varies across the wafer as a function of silane mole fraction and input power. Read More
This tutorial simulates the turn-on transient (forward recovery) of a simple PIN diode, based on the book "Fundamentals of Power Semiconductor Devices" by B. J. Baliga (p. 242, 2008 edition). The diode is current driven with a constant ramp rate of 1e9, 2e9 and 1e10 A/cm^2/sec and a ... Read More
This example is about the modeling of the fiber drawing process. Thermal fiber drawing is a process in which a comparatively thicker structure is heated and drawn into extended lengths of microstructured fiber. This process is done by passing them through the furnace and pulling them ... Read More
