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.
A model comparing the magnetization material models in time-dependent and frequency domain studies. Effective B-H curves are used for frequency domain. A linear relative permeability is included as reference. Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how to create domains for modeling inside and outside of an imported CAD assembly. You will also learn how to use the defeaturing tools for deleting details from the imported geometry. Read More
Intended as a tool for early proof of concept in capacitive touchscreen device development, the Touchscreen Simulator app evaluates a simulated capacitance matrix as well as the electric field norm. The app computes the capacitance matrix of a touchscreen in the presence of a human ... Read More
In this example a thin curved membrane is built and solved using the Shell interface. This model is a widely used benchmark model denoted the Scordelis-Lo roof. The computed maximum z-deformation is compared with the value given in Proposed Standard Set of Problems to Test Finite ... Read More
The electrical insulation strength of gases is generally much lower than that of solids. Under normal operating conditions, electrical discharges—known as partial discharges—can occur in voids or cracks within a solid dielectric. This model simulates partial discharges in a spherical ... Read More
The process of filling a water balloon is a vivid example for the interaction of fluid pressure and a nonlinear structural material. This model demonstrates how straightforward a FSI simulation model is set up in COMSOL. Read More
This model utilizes the thermoviscous acoustic interface in a sub-model to obtain detailed results for the transfer impedance of a perforated plate (including the thermal and viscous losses). The impedance is in turn used as an internal impedance in a pressure acoustic model of a ... Read More
This tutorial model shows how a user-defined coordinate system can be used to create any type of directional polarization of a piezoelectric material. Results are shown for the case of radial polarization of a piezoelectric disk. The piezoelectric material is PZT-5H. The example shows a ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how to modify a concentration-independent (also known as a secondary current distribution) liquid alkaline water electrolyzer with concentrated electrolyte theory to explicitly resolve local electrolyte and solvent concentrations (thereby creating a tertiary ... Read More
Piezoelectric microblowers are compact, lightweight air pumps with varying applications including electronics cooling and airflow related medical devices. The device consists of a PZT-brass diaphragm and a specially designed housing including a pumping chamber, air inlet and outlet ... Read More
