How to model thermodynamics in PolySim

1. 1

   Define the system

   Set up the governing equations and parameters for thermodynamics on the node graph.

2. 2

   Set boundary & initial conditions

   Apply constraints and starting state so the problem is well-posed.

3. 3

   Choose a solver

   Pick an appropriate numerical method and resolution for your accuracy needs.

4. 4

   Run and inspect

   Run locally with WebGPU and explore results in the data inspector.

5. 5

   Iterate or scale

   Adjust parameters live, or scale to the cloud for larger runs.
