The shift toward the electrification of vehicles and the expansion of the electrical grid for renewable energy integration has led to a considerable increase in the demand for power electronics devices and modernised cable systems — applications that will help ensure a consistent and long-term electricity supply. Simulation is used to drive the design of new power electronics devices (such as solar power and wind turbine systems), which are required to operate efficiently for varying levels of power production and power consumption (in the case of electric vehicles). A multiphysics modelling and simulation approach plays a critical role in meeting design goals and reducing the overall production time.

The COMSOL Multiphysics software offers a wide range of capabilities for the modelling of energy transmission and power electronics, including quasistatic and time-harmonic electromagnetic fields. Additionally, the COMSOL[emoticon:6abd1cb2558648488dbea31d006afc59...
