Computing and Visualizing Satellite Orbits in COMSOL®
Here, we introduce a new, out-of-this-world tutorial model of a spacecraft in orbit.
Computing and Using Partial Inductance with COMSOL®
COMSOL Multiphysics® version 6.0 brings new functionality for computing total and partial inductances and AC resistances. Get an overview here.
The Boltzmann Equation, Two-Term Approximation Interface
When modeling plasma, you sometimes want to define the electron transport properties as a function of the electron energy. The Boltzmann Equation, Two-Term Approximation interface does just that.
How Long Does It Take an Engineer to Turn on a Light Bulb?
Misconception about electricity: Electrons carry the energy in an electrical circuit. Today, we investigate this theory with simulation.
Predicting the Effects of Induction Heating with Simulation
What is induction heating? What are the benefits of it? Can it be simulated with COMSOL Multiphysics? Keep reading to find out…
Optimizing Solar Cell Designs with a Simulation App
The SolCelSim app, designed by an MSc student at the University of Zilina, enables researchers to simulate solar cell designs, even if they are unfamiliar with simulation software.
Micromagnetic Simulation with COMSOL Multiphysics®
A guest blogger from Fudan University in China used the Physics Builder in COMSOL Multiphysics to create a “Micromagnetics Module” for performing micromagnetic simulations.
Computing Loss, Temperature, and Efficiency in Electric Motors
Follow along as we investigate the variation of iron and copper losses, the resulting temperature rise, and its effect on the efficiency of a permanent magnet machine.
