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.

Lightning Surge Analysis of an Offshore Wind Farm

This model analyzes lightning surges in an offshore wind farm. When a lightning strike with a current of 20 kA hit one wind turbine, the induced electric fields in adjacent wind turbines were computed. Read More

Absorptive Muffler with Shells

This model describes the pressure wave propagation in a muffler for an internal combustion engine. The purpose of the model is to show how to analyze both inductive and resistive damping in pressure acoustics as well as coupling the fluid to the surrounding elastic shell structure of the ...

Time-to-Frequency Fast Fourier Transform of a Coaxial Low-Pass Filter

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

Mechanics of a Golf Swing

How well you can strike a golf ball is not only determined by your muscle strength, but more importantly it is influenced by the mechanics of golf swing. The outcome of golf stroke is basically determined by the movement of the club head just prior to the impact with the ball. In this ... Read More

Newtonian Telescope

Newtonian telescopes, first invented in 1668 by Isaac Netwon, are still used today because of their low cost and simple design. Rays of light propagate from sources located at infinity, into the telescope. The rays reflect off a parabolic mirror, onto a flat mirror, and into the focal ... Read More

Slurry Transport

The Pipe Flow interface allows you to simulate non-Newtonian fluids flowing in pipes. This example models a coal slurry being transported in a pipe system where the pipe diameter changes in different sections. The slurry behaves as a non-Newtonian fluid described by the power law model. ... Read More

Ear Canal Acoustics

In this tutorial model, the acoustics of the human ear canal are investigated. The output includes the input impedance and the transfer impedance, as well as the level transformation from the entrance to the eardrum. The geometry of the ear canal used is based on measurements from test ... Read More

Eppler Airfoil Transition

The flow around the Eppler 387 airfoil is computed with the SST turbulence model both with and without the transition model. The reuslts are compared with experimental values. Read More

Induction Motor in 2D

This is an example of a model of an induction motor in which the eddy currents are induced in the rotor by the time harmonic currents on the stator windings and the rotation of the rotor. In this example, we analyze the induction motor in 2D using the transient solver in the Rotating ... Read More

Stray Current Pipeline Corrosion

The impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) system is often employed to mitigate corrosion of buried pipelines in the oil and gas industry. Metallic objects such as buried pipelines, which are present within the current flow of the ICCP system, may suffer from the stray current ... Read More
