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: How an app can be used as a teaching tool An 8 question multiple choice quiz where the answers can be sent to the grader by email This app calculates the equilibrium compositions in gas phase conversion of ethylene to ethanol. It allows you to ... Read More
This tutorial illustrates how to use the Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) functionality to answer questions regarding sensitivity and reliability of a flow reactor with thermal decomposition. The tutorial investigates what uncertainties in parameters dominates the survival of a nutrient ... Read More
Biotechnology is a rapidly growing area in the pharmaceutical sciences. One example of a clinical application is gene therapy, where it is possible to produce proteins in vivo, using the body’s own mechanisms for protein production. Major issues in gene delivery involve the transport of ... Read More
Real reactors can be modeled as combinations of ideal reactors. In this example the so-called "Dead zone model" is utilized. Two ideal CSTRs with interchange are set up to model the real reactor. One CSTR represents the highly agitated region and the other the less agitated region. For ... Read More
This tutorial example illustrates the versatility of the Reaction Engineering interface. The hydrogen iodine reaction is modeled in a batch reactor with constant volume. Both isothermal and non-isothermal conditions are modeled. Read More
Tutorial model investigating a set of two competing reactions. The model demonstrates the natural modeling strategy for reaction engineering in COMSOL Multiphysics®. That is, how to go from chemical equations to space-dependent models of reacting flow with a minimum of work. Read More
This example illustrates how to set up and solve a tank-in-series model in 0D using the Reaction Engineering interface. The model treats a series of three consecutive tank reactors. A feedback loop continuously adjusts the inlet concentration of the first tank to keep the concentration ... Read More
Oscillating chemical reactions were long thought to simply not exist in homogeneous solution, and even the poster child, the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction, met such an initial skepticism, that even though it was discovered in 1951, it took almost 20 years for it to gain widespread fame. ...

When evaluating the efficacy of treatments for ocular diseases, modeling and simulation can be used for pharmacokinetic analysis by visualizing drug concentration and how it spreads through the eye over time. In this simplified pharmacokinetic model of a human eye, a small patch is ... Read More
Cupric ions show a strong affinity to ammonia in aqueous solutions, forming strongly colored deep blue complexes. The relative amounts of the different ammine ligand complexes, with varying coordination numbers, are governed by the stability constants of the equilibria forming the ... Read More
