Introduction
A virtual laboratory is a tool for distance learning and/or experimentation that allows people to share knowledge, data, voice, video, tools, and many other resources. It provides a suitable environment to extend, improve, integrate, refine, and assist the learning and/or experimentation process of many subjects, thus contributing to an increase of the effectiveness of scientific research and widening the use of scarce or costly equipments. This project is an initiative of Ministry of Education (MoE) under National Mission on Education through ICT.

Objective

The objective of the proposed virtual lab is to simulate different mine ventilation related experiments for imparting the laboratory skill to the mining engineering students in this area, in the context of insufficient laboratory facilities for many of the mining engineering institutes.
