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 model demonstrates one way of using equation-based modeling for generative design by using the powerful mathematical expression capabilities of COMSOL Multiphysics®. Read More
This model calculates the DC breakdown voltage between parallel electrodes in air using a detailed charge transport approach. It is currently one-dimensional for simplicity but can be extended to other gases and dimensions. The results closely match experimental data found in the ... Read More
In electromagnetic simulations, such as transformers and converter stations, one often needs to include geometrically thin conductive layers. Explicitly meshing these thin layers can be computationally expensive and numerically challenging, especially when the layer thickness is much ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to vary the inlet temperature in a superheated steam drying process so as to minimize the time, while constraining both the energy consumption and the final moisture content. Read More
This model demonstrates dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) in air subjected to an AC applied voltage. As the voltage amplitude increases, the discharge intensity correspondingly strengthens. Furthermore, the dominant component of the discharge current transitions from displacement ... Read More
This model is based on the Metasurface Beam Deflector model. The performance is improved using shape optimization by allowing both the radii and the position of the individual pillars to change. Read More
How the open-circuit voltage (OCV) of a lithium-ion battery varies with the state of charge is governed by various physical properties such as the thermodynamics of the electrode reactions, the relative capacities of the electrode materials, and the amount of cyclable lithium, but also ...

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
The Turbulent flow, Elliptic Blending R-ε interface is used to analyze fully developed turbulent flow in a spanwise rotating channel. Due to the influence of the Coriolis force on turbulence, profiles of the flow variables are skewed at moderate rotation rates. An asymmetry between the ... Read More
Carbon corrosion is one of the important degradation mechanisms in a Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) fuel cells which predominantly occurs during start-up or shut down of the fuel cells. During carbon corrosion, carbon support to catalysts is compromised affecting the cell ... Read More
