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.
The Czochralski (CZ) method is one of the most important methods for the preparation of monocrystalline silicon. The shape of the crystal, especially the diameter, is controlled by carefully adjusting the heating power, the pulling rate, and the rotation rate of the crystal. This model ... Read More
The purpose of this model is to introduce the Semitransparent Surface Feature from the Radiation in Participating Media Interface. It is a variation of the Radiative Cooling of a Glass Plate model with the DOM method. In this version a semitransparent surface is defined on external ... Read More
When radiation occurs across a very narrow gap this is often well-approximated as radiation between infinite parallel plates. This model considers three aluminum plates separated by narrow air gaps. The model compares the classical approach, based on the Surface-to-Surface Radiation ... Read More
This case shows how to simulate moisture transport in a homogeneous wall under isothermal conditions. With this assumption, an analytical solution can be calculated. The homogeneous layer is initialized in moisture balance. At the beginning of the simulation, the relative humidity of ... Read More
The purpose of this model is to introduce the Thermal Insulation feature available in Heat Transfer interfaces. Thermal Insulation is the default feature for external boundaries. An additional Thermal Insulation node is necessary in order to apply a thermal insulation condition to an ... Read More
This model shows how to use the features of the Heat Transfer Module to reduce the computation time and memory usage in view factor computations. Illustrative results of speedup and memory usage reduction are given on a benchmark model. The solution is not computed, only the view ... Read More
This tutorial model demonstrates the use of the multiphysics coupling feature Thermal Connection, Layered Shell, Surfaces. In this model, one layered shell is connected to heat domains by a facing boundary. The results obtained with the Heat Transfer in Shells interface are compared with ... Read More
This tutorial shows how to simulate coupled heat and moisture transport in a wall made of a load bearing and an insulation layer. Moisture and temperature conditions vary with time on both sides of the wall and rain loading is included. The 1D model is a benchmark test defined in ... Read More
This model is a verification case to attest the behavior of turbulence models and wall functions in the boundary layer of a turbulent flow. The velocity and the temperature are compared to the theoretical curves in a wall-resolved and a wall-modeled approach using the Algebraic y+ ... Read More
Nucleate boiling occurs when a liquid is heated by a source hotter than the saturated fluid temperature but with a heat flux below the critical heat flux. In this regime, high heat flux are possible due to the evaporation of the liquid. This model aims to demonstrate the calculation of ... Read More
