Continuum Simulations

Energy2D, an independent computational fluid dynamics tool developed by Charles Xie, is used as a continuum simulation plug-in that models heat transfer and fluid flow problems. The following two demo simulations show conduction and convection. These simulations require Java to run. If they don't run, check your browser setting to make sure that you enable Java.

Conduction (comparing different materials)

Convection (compared with conduction)
