Hello fellow Comsol users,
Most of my experience comes from structural mechanics and fracture and would like to ask a little help regarding pressure acoustics.
The presence of high and low pressure in air will change it's refractive index due to a change in the density. I would like to model this change in refractive index, but am a little lost.
Could anyone tell me how I could go about modelling/solving for a change in material property?
I am using a time dependant pressure model in air. Within the materials section I can see that the density is a function of temperature and pA [which I assume to be absolute pressure], but when I plot the change in density it says that there is no change in density even if there is a change in pressure.
I'm sorry if this question sounds a little dumb, I'm sure that I am just being stupid today.
Also, I have had a look at the forum and a little in the documentation but could not find anything to help.
Anyone have some ideas out there? I would greatly appreciate your help.
Rob
