Visualization of energy flows using a particle system

Abstract

Nowadays simulation and visualization are used to a greater extent in real life. Needless to say, different kinds of visualization are widely applied in various spheres such as education, computer entertainment, economics and business, industrial sector, etc. New machine tools and industrial elements can be easily designed by means of visualization. Especially concerning research on energy efficiency, visualization is an important step for understanding. This paper describes a new method for energy visualization using a particle system. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2014.
