Abstract
•Account of built-in methods for electrochemistry in COMSOL Multiphysics.•Critical discussion of meshing finite element models for diffusion problems.•Review of publications using COMSOL Multiphysics in electroanalytical chemistry.
We discuss the use of the commercial finite element software COMSOL Multiphysics® for electrochemical analysis. Practical considerations relevant to finite element modelling are highlighted. A review of contemporary applications of this software is supplied; the subjects concerned reveal the particular suitability of general-purpose finite element methods for non-standard geometries, complex reaction chemistry, hydrodynamic electrochemistry, and rapid verification of standard results.
