Phase Change in Fluids Simulated

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the trying-for-real-life-in-a-lab dept.

brendotroy writes "After decades of work by the physics and computer science communities, scientists at the University of Rochester have finally created a mathematical model that will allow scientists to simulate and understand phase changes. This discovery 'could have an impact on everything from decaffeinating coffee to improving fuel cell efficiency in automobiles of the future.'"

    Could this be used also to better apply physics to videogames? Perhaps enhancing weather simulations for RTS games or physics properties for FPS games?
