THIS INTERACTIVE JAVA APPLET WAS DEVELOPED AT UT AUSTIN BY Aubrey Dugger, UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF PROFESSOR. Spyros A. Kinnas, 1997.

PERMISSION TO LINK TO THIS JAVA APPLET AND TO DOWNLOAD OR TO USE THE RELATED JAVA SOURCE CODE, MUST BE GRANTED BY PROFESSOR Spyros A. Kinnas ( kinnas@mail.utexas.edu ).


This applet is going to simulate the energy losses that occur owing to Viscous Drag in fluids.

  • The color of the fluid changes when a different fluid is chosen.
  • Velocity ranges from 0.01 to 10 m/s.
  • Lenght ranges from 0 to 10 m.
  • Diameter ranges from 0.01 to 1 m.
  • Perameters which are out of these bounds will not be accepted.
