- This article presents the Calorimetry - SimuFísica simulator, an interactive computational tool designed for teaching heat exchange processes. The simulator enables dynamic and audiovisual exploration of phenomena such as the heating of liquids and the establishment of thermal equilibrium between bodies at different temperatures. We describe its interface and the underlying physics, based on the equations of specific heat, latent heat of vaporization, and Newton's law of cooling. Two educational application examples are analyzed, in which the simulation results are compared with calculations typically performed at the high school and early undergraduate levels, highlighting the consistency between theory and simulation and the pedagogical potential of the tool.
