As the title says, I'm trying to simulate electrical arcing using COMSOL. Specifically, I am trying to use COMSOL to determine whether or not arcing will occur in a high voltage battery configuration with various gasses surrounding the batteries. If anyone has any knowledge regarding this topic and knows which physics interfaces I would have to use and how to use those interfaces I would very much appreciate your help!

Arcing detection is possible by using Plasma Module -> DC discharge. If the self-sustained dicharge is possible in the configuration you investigate then the arcing will take place also.
