Transcript

This archived webinar provides an overview of simulating Joule heating with COMSOL Multiphysics. Also referred to as ohmic or resistive heating, Joule heating commonly affects material properties, such as electrical conductivity. A few examples of where this occurs includes conductors in fuses, electronics, power lines, and electric heaters.

Watch to learn how you can easily set up and solve a Joule heating simulation using COMSOL software.
