This workshop provides an introduction to the low frequency electromagnetics simulations with COMSOL’s AC/DC Module. Participants will learn how to set up models for solving electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields and use dedicated tools for extracting parameters such as resistance, capacitance, inductance, impedance, etc.

Topics that will be covered:

• General introductions to electromagnetics modeling
• Typical applications scopes of AC/DC Module (such as capacitors, inductors, insulators, coils, magnets, transformers, actuators, and sensors)
• Key features of AC/DC Module
• Special boundary conditions
• Multiphysics Couplings
• Hands-on exercises

This workshop will introduce the capabilities of COMSOL’s CFD module for modelling fluid flow and fluid flow coupled with heat transfer problems. The physics interfaces for modeling most aspects of fluid flow, including compressible, nonisothermal, non-Newtonian, multiphase, and porous media flows — all in the laminar and turbulent flow regimes will be covered. Participants will learn how to build a CFD model and run multiphysics simulations.

Key contents include:

• Introducing the key features of CFD Module
• Multiphysics capabilities in CFD Module
• Nonisothermal flow interface – coupling with heat transfer
• Transport modeling
