Hello, I'm working on a new concept of environment. I'm dealing with energy flows which manipulating substance. What tools of simulation do i need to simulate substances and the energy flows that "act inside" them?
Thanks

Your description of your application is so general and high level that it is hard to give any suggestions. Please be more specific.

The Mathworks Simulink program, is a very flexible, and powerful, block diagram oriented tool for simulating systems that can be modeled using ODE's (ordinary differential equations) also known as lumped element models. It can handle linear and non-linear systems of equations. From your brief description it sound like your systems may be ammenable to modeling using ODE's so I would recommend looking into that.
For systems that need to be modeled with partial differential equations, there is a MATLAB Partial Differential Equation Toolbox, but I do not have any experience using that. There are also many other commercial packages, COMSOL is widely advertised for doing Multiphyics (mixed domains, fluid, solid, electrical etc all combined into one system). There are also other specialty packages like ANSYS Fluent for doing computational fluid dynamics.
