Detail Page

written by Kyle Forinash
This is a collection of interactive Java applets and tutorial materials on thermodynamics.  Each page contains a simulation and a brief explanation of the system. Most simulations also include questions to guide the user to interpret the data provided in the applet, and draw conclusions.  Pressure, pistons, Brownian motion, the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution, diatomic models, blackbody radiation, and engine cycles are covered.
