Overview:
This is a gas dynamics molecular simulation.
The number of molecules shown depends on the chosen size.
You may:
- Click on parameters (Parameters) to set initial values: number of atoms (up to 300), mass, diameter, temperature, time step, maximum speed.
- Follow the evolution of one atom.
Suggestions:
You may:
- Do various experiments by changing one parameter at a time.
- Analyse how the distribution of speeds evolves with time.
- Discuss the evolution of one molecule.
- Figure out schematically how the simulation model has been programmed.
