Real-Time Fluid Dynamics for Games...

I ported a Jos Stam's demo about Fluid mech to check
the difference of speed between C implementation and
Python. I think I achieved good results with Python
and there is space to improve, without to extend the
program with C routine, I mean.

Good hack,

Tested on
python 2.4
numarray 1.1.1
PyOpenGL-2.0.2.01.py2.4-numpy23
glut-3.7.6

How to use this demo:
Add densities with the right mouse button
Add velocities with the left mouse button and dragging the mouse
Toggle density/velocity display with the 'v' key
Clear the simulation by pressing the 'c' key

Your two email addresses bouce emails back, so I post a shortened
version of my comment here.
I haven't installed:
PyOpenGL-2.0.2.01.py2.4-numpy23
glut-3.7.6
Therefore at the moment I cannot try your interesting code.
What's the speed of this Python code on your computer?
I'd like to see a screenshoot of the running Python Program...

Some people are doing in Python some things that require lots of
computations, like:

You can find some screenshot in the Stam's original paper.
I didn't do any serious benchmark. I compared the speed
of C version with the Python one. It seems enough good.

I advice you to download from Stam's site paper and C code,
compile the C code and verify yourself the results.

I think the solver of Navier-Stokes equations is a piece
of cake(remember, it's patented): one page of code or less. :)

I don't like the use of global in the callback functions
of OpenGL.
