Material Libraries
The AC/DC materials library contains a number of materials that assist in modeling electromagnetic components such as actuators, motors, loudspeakers, generators, and so on. Two branches of material, AC/DC () and Nonlinear Magnetic () in the Material Library (), are frequently used. The AC/DC branch includes typical materials for electromagnetics modeling and the Nonlinear Magnetic branch includes nonlinear magnetization curves for a large set of ferromagnetic alloys.
For detailed information about Materials including the AC/DC Material Library and Nonlinear Magnetic Materials Library, see the COMSOL Multiphysics Reference Manual.
The Liquid Metals folder of the AC/DC Material Library contains values of the Thermal conductivity, Electrical conductivity, Dynamic viscosity, and Density for liquid Titanium, Steel, Iron, Nickel, Copper, Aluminum, Magnesium, Tin, Lithium, Sodium, Wood’s metal, Potassium, Gallium, NaK (Sodium-potassium eutectic), and Mercury based on the book Introduction to Magnetohydrodynamics by P.A. Davidson, published by Cambridge University Press.
