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 tutorial model shows the setup of a 2D axisymmetric stress analysis, through contact, of a 3D threaded pipe fitting. The example involves synchronizing the 3D SOLIDWORKS® geometry and selections, which specify the faces in contact, with the 2D geometry in COMSOL  ... Read More
This model incorporates the transport and electrolytic reaction in the treatment of tumor tissue. Oxygen evolution at the anode produces protons, which lowers the pH, while chlorine production also leads to lowered pH through the hydrolysis of chlorine. One effect of a low pH is the ... Read More
This example demonstrates the wrinkling of a thin rectangular sheet stretched uniaxially. First, a static analysis is performed to determine the region of negative principal stresses without wrinkling. Next, a prestressed buckling analysis is carried out to find out the linearized ... Read More
Breaker and disconnector devices are widely used in AC substations in power systems.In this model, the Electrostatics Interface is used to simulate the electric potential and electric field in a 110kV 3-phase high-voltage switchgear operating at 50 Hz. A surrogate model is also trained ... Read More
With an increase in the parallel component of the applied field, carriers can gain energies above the ambient thermal energy and be able to transfer energy gained by the field to the lattice by optical phonon emission. The latter effect leads to a saturation of the carriers mobility. The ... Read More
Light rail transit (LRT) systems often utilize DC power for train propulsion. In these systems the potential gradients in the rails may induce stray currents, which corrode adjacent metallic structures. In this example, the Cathodic Protection interface, using Edge Electrode nodes, is ... Read More
Electrochemical codeposition is a common low-cost method for producing metal alloys. This tutorial model demonstrates electrodeposition of a nickel (Ni)–phosphorous (P) alloy. The model accounts for charge and mass transport of a multitude of species along with multiple electrode ... Read More
Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is an important step in the process of manufacturing microchips. One common application is the deposition of silicon on wafers in low pressure reactors to obtain uniform deposition thicknesses. This example models the coupled reaction kinetics, fluid ... Read More
This tutorial model of the Joule heating effect in a busbar demonstrates how to synchronize an assembly between the PTC Creo Parametric™ software and the COMSOL Multiphysics® software, how to modify the geometry from COMSOL Multiphysics®, and how to run a ... Read More
A very wide band coaxial low-pass filter is designed using a 2D axisymmetric model. To address the wide band frequency response with a fine frequency resolution, the model is built with a transient physics interface first. Then, S-parameters are calculated using a time-to-frequency ... Read More
