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.
Geometric Parameter Optimization of a Tuning Fork
This model computes the fundamental eigenfrequency and eigenmode for a tuning fork that is synchronized from SolidWorks via the LiveLink interface. The length of the fork is then optimized so that the tuning fork sounds the note A, 440 Hz. Read More
Lumped Receiver Connected to Test Setup with a 0.4-cc Coupler
In this model a Knowles ED23146 receiver (miniature loudspeaker) is connected to a test set-up consisting of a 50 mm (1 mm diameter) earmold tube and a so-called 0.4-cc coupler. The receiver is modeled using a lumped spice network and connected to the finite element domain at the tube ... Read More
Thermal Connection, Shared Boundaries
This tutorial model demonstrates the use of the multiphysics coupling feature Thermal Connection, Layered Shell, Surfaces. In this model, three layered shells are connected to heat domains by interior and exterior boundaries. The results obtained with the Heat Transfer in Shells ... Read More
Switched Reluctance Motor
Switched reluctance motors work on the principle of reluctance torque. The stator and rotor will interact so as to minimize the reluctance for the flux path. This application simulates the behavior of the motor when the stator winding is excited with a step voltage and the rotor being ... Read More
Connecting Beams and Solids
This example demonstrates the use of the Solid-Beam Connection multiphysics coupling to create transitions between the Solid Mechanics and Beam interfaces. Two different connection types are discussed, and a comparison of the stress distributions at the transition is made. Read More
Carbonation in Water
This example shows how to model carbonation, which is a type of sparging. Sparging is a mass transfer process between a gas and a liquid that is common in industry (such as beverage carbonation and photobioreactor applications) and at home (aquarium aeration). In the carbonation model, ... Read More
App with CAD Import and Selections
This app simulates a micromixer based on an imported CAD geometry. The app shows how you can use the Application Builder to build an app that can handle CAD import and let the user interactively select boundary conditions. The app shows how this can be done without any programming using ... Read More
Uncertainty Quantification of a Bracket — Fillet Version
This example demonstrates how to use the Uncertainty Quantification Module by running a series of uncertainty quantification studies for a steel bracket. This type of bracket can be used to install an actuator that is mounted on a pin placed between the two holes in the bracket arms. ... Read More
Shell Conduction
This model simulates a static analysis of heat conduction in a thin conductive shell. This is a benchmark model where the result is compared with a NAFEMS benchmark solution. Read More
Single-Bit Hologram
When two coherent light beams intersect, an interference pattern appears. If this occurs in a material that is sensitive to light, with intensities greater than a certain exposure threshold, the interference pattern is recorded in the material as a modulation of the refractive index and ...
