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://support.hull.ac.uk/ 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
Batch Submission
#!/bin/bash #SBATCH -J ComsolTest # Job name, you can change it to whatever you want #SBATCH -N 1 # Number of nodes to run across #SBATCH -n 28 # Number of cores to run across #SBATCH -o %N-%j.log # Standard output will be written here #SBATCH -e %N-%j.err # Standard error will be written here #SBATCH -p compute # Slurm partition, where you want the job to be queued #SBATCH --exclusive 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.
