App: Studying a Concentric Tube Heat Exchanger’s Dimensions
The Concentric Tube Heat Exchanger Dimensioning Tool demo app is an example of what is possible when you build a simplified version of a model and share it throughout your organization.

Useful Tools for Postprocessing in COMSOL Multiphysics
Layering plots; style inheritance; enabling and disabling grids, axes, and legends; showing mesh plots, and more: We go over some useful tools for postprocessing your simulation results.

Optimizing Heat Sink Designs with a Simulation App
The Heat Sink with Fins demo app is here to get you started with designing your own heat sink design app. Take a look at the design scenario, app, and underlying model here.

Using a Simulation App to Evaluate Fatigue Life in a Frame
The Frame Fatigue Life demo app is an example of how simulation apps can save you time and energy in evaluating the impact of fatigue on a structure. Take a look here >>

App: Improving the Payload Capacity of a Truck-Mounted Crane
Manufacturers and engineers looking to optimize the payload, or carrying, capacity of a truck-mounted crane can easily test parameters with a simulation app. Take a look at our demo app example.

Creating a Wavelength Tunable LED Simulation App
Learn how to turn a model of an LED device into a user-friendly simulation app, which can then be used to assess the impact of different designs on the LED’s emission characteristics.

Sensing the Bio in Biosensor Design with a Simulation App
The Biosensor Design demo app predicts the results from measurements of a biomolecule’s concentration (or activity) from an understanding of this molecule’s attachment to an enzyme.

How to Create a Simulation App: Horn Antenna Demo
Get a comprehensive overview of what a simulation app is. We use the Corrugated Circular Horn Antenna Simulator demo app to demonstrate some of apps’ many benefits.
