Interactive Condensation Simulation  by Lim Wan Jo
This interactive simulation demonstrates how temperature differences between water and its surroundings determine whether condensation forms on the inner or outer surfaces of a beaker.
 
🧪 How to Use the Simulation
 
Step 1: Set the Environment Look for the Surrounding Air Temperature slider. Set this to a normal room temperature, like 30°C. This represents the air around the beaker.

 

Step 2: Create "Cold Water" Move the Water Temperature slider down to a cold setting, like 10°C.

What to look for: Observe the outer wall of the beaker. Do you see any water droplets?

 
Step 3: Create "Hot Water" Now, slide the Water Temperature up to a hot setting, like 70°C.

What to look for: Observe the inside of the beaker. Look at the underside of the lid and the walls above the water line.

 
Step 4: Find the Balance Try to move the water slider until it matches the air temperature exactly (both at 30°C).

What to look for: Observe both the inside and outside of the beaker. Do you see any water droplets remaining?
