SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on finding tutorials for using FEMLAB, now known as COMSOL Multiphysics, specifically for modeling radiation heat transfer problems. Users are directed to the FEMLAB model library documentation and the COMSOL showroom, which offers a variety of solved cases that can serve as tutorials. The discussion emphasizes that while the HEAT Transfer Module is beneficial, it is not strictly necessary for basic heat transfer modeling, as users can implement their models with some effort.

PREREQUISITES
  • FEMLAB/COMSOL Multiphysics software knowledge
  • Understanding of radiation heat transfer principles
  • Familiarity with model implementation techniques
  • Basic research skills for locating online resources
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the COMSOL showroom for solved cases related to heat transfer
  • Review the FEMLAB model library documentation for detailed guidance
  • Search for online tutorials specifically addressing radiation heat transfer
  • Investigate community forums for shared user experiences and models
USEFUL FOR

Engineers, researchers, and students interested in thermal modeling, particularly those utilizing FEMLAB/COMSOL for radiation heat transfer applications.

Where can I find some general tutorials on using FEMLAB to model radiation heat transfer problems? I don't have the HEAT Transfer Module.

Welcome to Pf WashU. You got the Femlab (or Comsol as it nowadays is called) model library documentation? That's one well documented and explained source, other than the general software documentation itself regarding heat transfer problems. Femlab "showroom" , http://www.comsol.com/showroom/ , contains a number of solved cases (they'll email you the models if you ask) which you could use as tutorials (+the conference CDs and like are essentially a collection of models which work well as tutorials). Some examples regarding heat transfer can be found online (by googling 'femlab heat transfer' or like) but not to the extent as in the documentation or femlab website. Yeah, you don't need the heat transfer module if you're just interested in doing "basic" heat transfer related modeling (and if you're willing to do some work in implementing your models can overcome even that "basic").
