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 app demonstrates the following: Selecting predefined or user-defined materials User option to switch between laminar flow or turbulent flow Changing boundary conditions using methods Visualizing temperature dependent material properties as graph plots User option to set the solver ...

The transmission speed of optical waveguides is superior to microwave waveguides because optical devices have a much higher operating frequency than microwaves, enabling a far higher bandwidth. Single-mode step-index fibers are used for long-haul (even transoceanic) communication, ... Read More
This tutorial model shows the setup of a 2D axisymmetric stress analysis, through contact, of a 3D threaded pipe fitting. The example involves synchronizing the 3D PTC Creo Parametric™ geometry and selections, which specify the faces in contact, with the 2D geometry in COMSOL  ... Read More
One-sided magnets are magnets designed to have both magnetic poles emerging from the same side of the magnet. This results in the magnetic flux being concentrated on one side of the magnet. These kinds of magnets are found in many applications from the common fridge magnet to particle ... Read More
These models use the Discrete Ordinates method (DOM) and P1 approximation to solve a 3D radiative transfer problem in an emitting, absorbing, and linear-anisotropic scattering finite cylindrical medium. Using the S6 quadrature of DOM leads to accurate results, which are needed in ... Read More
The bidirectional formulation of the Beam Envelopes interface can be used not only for counter-propagating wave simulations but also for waves propagating to up to two directions. In this model, an almost collimated Gaussian beam is excited at the left boundary and exhibits total ... Read More
In this example, the eigenmodes of a structural damper are computed. In the damper, most of the deformation is controlled by the viscoelastic domains, which have strongly frequency-dependent stiffness and damping properties. This leads to a nonlinear eigenfrequency problem, which can be ... Read More
A model of a thermal microactuator requires the coupled simulation of electric current conduction with heat generation, heat conduction, and structural stresses and strains due to thermal expansion. The purpose of this model is to demonstrate how to access the cluster computing ... Read More
This model represents a stove in a living room. A radiation study is performed with the Surface-to-Surface Radiation physics interface. It shows the intensity of the stove radiation received on different surfaces of the room. Read More
A spherical water-rich load (potato) is placed on the rotating glass tray of a microwave oven some distance from the center of rotation. 1 kW of 2.45 GHz microwave power is applied via a waveguide feed. The plate rotates at 9 degrees per second. The heat transfer model involves the ... Read More
