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 demonstrates the use of the Area Scaling Factor (ASF) in the Heat Transfer in Shells interface, to account for the curvature of the layers when applying heat fluxes and heat sources. The results obtained with the Heat Transfer in Shells interface applied to a ... Read More
Bicycle wheels are laced tangentially if they are intended to be used with disc brakes, because a radial pattern gives rise to larger forces in the rim. Otherwise, these rim forces are largely independent of the braking force. Read More
Gradient-based optimization is an efficient way of computing better values for many control variables. This example optimizes diameters of individual members in a truss structure such that the structure becomes stiffer without adding mass to the structure. The structure will be only be ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to create a rotated helix geometry, i.e., a helix that is winded to form a torus. This is done sweeping a circle along a parametric curve. The radius of the torus and the radius of the coil are given as parameters as well as the number of windings of the coil. Read More
When computing ray intensity in 2D axisymmetric models, the wavefront associated with the propagating ray is treated as a spherical or ellipsoidal wave, instead of a cylindrical wave. This tutorial example illustrates how to set up several important features using the Ray Acoustics ... Read More
Formally known as size separation in vibrated granular materials, the Brazil nut effect (BNE) (and sometimes the Muesli effect) is a phenomenon that causes large grains to separate from small ones and rise to the top of a granular bed under vibrations. This phenomenon can be studied ... Read More
This single-phase induction motor model is used to compare with Testing Electromagnetic Analysis Method (TEAM) workshop problem 30. The Magnetic Fields physics interface is used to model the motor in the frequency domain at 60 Hz. The Velocity (Lorentz Term) feature is used to model the ... Read More
This tutorial shows how to simulate coupled heat and moisture transport in a wall. The wall is modeled considering an air flow between interior and exterior varying with time. The 1D model is the third benchmark test defined in HAMSTAD-WP2 Modeling for the validation of numerical ... Read More
Turbulent flow, SSG-LRR interface is used to analyze fully developed turbulent flow in an axially rotating pipe and in a swirling jet emanating from such a pipe. The resulting flow pattern in the pipe is characterized by slower-than-solid-body rotation. Axial velocity of the swirling jet ... Read More
It can in many cases be difficult to get accurate material properties for porous materials. Measuring the properties to high precision can involve lengthy measurements using different techniques. It can therefore be interesting to understand how uncertainties in different material ... Read More
