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 tutorial model explores the behavior of a microwave plasma torch. The plasma is generated within a dielectric tube inserted in a rectangular waveguide. The simulation solves the coupled equations for plasma transport and heating, microwave electromagnetic fields, fluid flow, and ... Read More
A diplexer is a device that combines or splits signals into two different frequency bands, widely used in mobile communication systems. This example simulates splitting properties using a simplified 2D geometry. The geometry is optimized using shape optimization in order to get the ... Read More
A line array of eleven spherical hydrophones embedded in a neoprene coating is modeled in 3D. The sensitivity of the array is analyzed with regard to varying angles of incidence of the background pressure field. The array directivity function is computed and compared to the analytical ... Read More
Electric impedance measurements are used for imaging and detection. Applications range from nondestructive testing and geophysical imaging to medical imaging. Several alternative techniques are shown to model such a system. One of them shows how to use conditional expressions to define ... Read More
These examples demonstrate using the Electrostatics, Boundary Elements interface, introduced in version 5.3 of the COMSOL Multiphysics® software. In the blog post associated with these files, "How to Create Electrostatics Models with Wires, Surfaces, and Solids", we demonstrate the pros ... Read More
An automotive midwoofer is modeled using the lumped parameter approach. The electrical and mechanical components are modeled using a lumped electric circuit, which is coupled to a finite element model for the acoustics using the Lumped Speaker Boundary feature. The large signal ... Read More
Analyzing resonances is essential when designing loudspeakers. Resonances can come from various sources in a loudspeaker, with the diaphragm being a significant one. There are numerous traditional approaches to address diaphragm resonances, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. A ... Read More
This model demonstrates how the sun causes 1.75 arcseconds of deflection for rays grazing the sun's surface as observed from the earth. Einstein predicted this value after refining his theory of relativity during World War I. Read More
Electroporation is a technique where a localized electric field is used to generate nanometric pores in cell membranes, improving the cell permeability for ions and pharmaceuticals. This model shows the electroporation of a spherical cell by means of a nanosecond electric pulse. The ... Read More
The design of antireflective coating plays an important role to increase the transmission of the infrared light that propagates through optical structures such as lens and windows. In this model, we showcase how different bulk structures such as Si and CZT that has the bulk ... Read More
