Modelling a basic coil in COMSOL Multiphysics using the AC/DC module

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Madam/Sir, I'm new to this software. I've went through the introduction videos posted in the website itself. I went through one of the blog written by Walter Frei which said about designing a single current carrying coil, in COMSOL. I want to start with the similar(and simple) example (attached with this post) to get to know the platform. Is there any step by step instructions as how to achieve the whole modelling and simulation processes?

P.S.- One of the figure is is attached with the discussion post. Please check the same.

My suggestion would be to work through as many examples as possible. Start at this link here and pick one(s) that you like.

Usually you start with just building the model, add the physics, mesh, add a study and go. Of course I am skipping many details here but between all of the library files, videos, and the forum, you have a lot of help.

If you go to the application gallery (https://www.comsol.com/models) many (all?) of the models have a .pdf attached that includes a step by step procedure for setting up the model.

This can be VERY helpful.
