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.
A demultiplexer is a device that directs different frequency bands to different outputs. In this tutorial model, we will design a demultiplexer by performing shape optimization on all initial circular boundaries in a sonic crystal (phononic crystal) configuration. The model uses shape ... Read More
Non-Newtonian fluids have complex flow characteristics that vary with shear rate, making their behavior in porous materials difficult to predict. Pore scale modeling captures these flow patterns at a microscopic level, helping derive properties for macroscale use. This model ... Read More
In this tutorial the geometry of an occluded ear-canal simulator is optimized to match the acoustic response of a given ear. The target data in this model stems from a simulation of an ear canal, but it can also be based on measurements, or a response specified by a standard. Read More
Beam theories are well-developed for slender structures with homogeneous materials and isotropic cross-sections. The traditional beam theories do no apply to beams made of different materials in the cross-section. Therefore, a homogenization-based numerical model is needed to compute ... Read More
Diesel particulate filters (DPFs) are designed to remove and filter soot (diesel particles) from the exhaust of diesel engine vehicles. The filters in such systems are typically structured with long, air-filled channels surrounded by a porous medium that retains the soot. Although the ... Read More
In this model of an ammonia-fed solid oxide fuel cell, the required hydrogen is supplied through endothermic thermal decomposition of ammonia. The model includes the full coupling between the mass balances and gas flow in the H2 and O2 gas diffusion electrodes, the momentum balances in ... Read More
An acousto-optic modulator (AOM) is a device which can be used for controlling the power, frequency or spatial direction of a laser beam with an electrical drive signal. It is based on the acousto-optic effect, that is, the modification of the refractive index by the oscillating ... Read More
FEM simulation can be used to obtain a SAW velocity and some related parameters (squared electromechanical coupling coefficient, reflectivity, etc.) for different typical configurations. Such parameters are input data for various analytical and semi-analytical methods of SAW device ... Read More
Obtaining the steady-state performance is an essential task for the electric motor designer. As with many electromagnetic devices, the steady-state condition of an electric motor is when electric and magnetic field variations have stabilized to periodic variations. That is when ... Read More
This model illustrates the refraction of light while passing through an optical prism using s– and p–polarized incident Gaussian beams. The prism boundaries are coated with anti–reflection coatings. It also calculates the reflectance and transmittance to analyze the performance of anti ... Read More
