Application Details

  • Description: COMSOL Multiphysics® is a general-purpose software platform, based on advanced numerical methods, for modeling and simulating physics-based problems.
  • Versions: 5.2, 5.3, 5.3a, 5.4
  • Module names: comsol/52a comsol/53 comsol/53a comsol/54
  • License: Restricted commercial license, limited to Materials Engineering group. Please raise a support ticket on https://hull.service-now.com/ for information.

Usage Examples

Executables

Executable Description
comsol The comsol executable is used to start both the graphical version of COMSOL or, with the batch flag, the batch version.

Interactive

The GUI version of COMSOL can be started in an interactive session by running comsol:

[username@c100 ~]$ module add test-modules comsol/52a
[username@c100 ~]$ comsol

module add test-modules comsol/52a

comsol batch -np 28 -inputfile "Input file.mph" -tmpdir /local/username/comsol -outputfile output-file.mph -batchlog comsolout.log

Because COMSOL creates large temporary files, performance can be improved by using the -tmpdir setting and using local storage by specifying a directory /local/username/comsol.

[username@login01 ~]$ sbatch COMSOL.job
Submitted batch job 289555
