The Joule Heating interface () is used to model resistive heating and, depending on additional licensed products, dielectric heating in devices where inductive effects are negligible; that is, when the skin depth is much larger than the studied device. This multiphysics interface adds an Electric Currents interface and a Heat Transfer in Solids interface. The multiphysics couplings add the electromagnetic power dissipation as a heat source, and the electromagnetic material properties can depend on the temperature.

See The Joule Heating Interface in the COMSOL Multiphysics Reference Manual for more details about this multiphysics interface.
