How to Build a Parameterized Archimedean Spiral Geometry
Learn how to build a parameterized geometry of an Archimedean spiral by using analytic equations and their derivatives to define a set of spiral curves.
How to Analyze an Induction Motor: A TEAM Benchmark Model
In this blog post, we demonstrate the modeling of the three-phase induction motor described in Testing Electromagnetic Analysis Methods (TEAM) workshop problem 30a.
How to Dynamically Modify Geometries in Simulation Apps
We demonstrate how to use the Method Editor to create an app for: 1.) dynamically creating and modifying geometry parts and 2.) applying appropriate physical specifications and mesh.
How to Implement a Delay in Your Thermostat Simulation
When simulating a thermostat in COMSOL Multiphysics®, you can implement a delay for short-cycling in addition to the on and off setpoints. See how here.
Connecting the Dots Between Theory, Model, and App
We explore how the concepts of theory, model, and simulation app connect and relate to each other, using the example of analyzing buckling in a truss tower design.
How to Make Boundary Conditions Conditional in Your Simulation
In some modeling scenarios, you may want to apply a boundary condition to only part of the geometrical boundary or only under certain conditions. Learn how to do so here.
How to Model Solar Concentrators with the Ray Optics Module
Learn how to predict the concentration ratio for an idealized, parabolic solar reflector using Monte Carlo ray tracing in the Ray Optics Module, an add-on to COMSOL Multiphysics®.
Thermal Modeling of the Air Flow Inside and Around Your House
Learn step by step how to set up a thermal model of the airflow in and around a house, including how to implement tabulated meteorological data from the historical ASHRAE database.
