Virtual laboratories (VL) and interactive simulations are excellent approaches for training students to understand technical principles. This can be useful in many fields of science and engineering teaching. For this purpose, we have developed a virtual environment that can simulate real-laboratory operations, effectively enhancing the teaching process with an intuitive and appealing interface. Such software shows the virtual-studio practice characterization of basic biofuel-properties, simulating reality step-by-step. This virtual laboratory has been used by students of the postgraduate master subject on Biomass for Power Generation, belonging to the Master of Distributed Renewable Energy. The aim of this tool is to help students to study, learn and investigate on their own. The virtual lab is made of a web-based application to complement experimental laboratory training, allowing students to prepare their …
