| Issue | Impact | |-------|--------| | No fluid viscosity model | Cannot simulate real-world turbine lag | | Perfect square wave | Real sensor has jitter, voltage droop | | No temperature compensation | Real sensor output drifts with temp | | Limited community libraries | Some versions are buggy or untested | | No pressure drop model | Simulation ignores backpressure |

Modify code:
| Benefit | Explanation | |---------|-------------| | | No need to buy physical sensors for initial testing | | Rapid prototyping | Test code changes in seconds | | Debugging | View pulse trains, count interrupts virtually | | Education | Safe environment for students learning flow sensors | | Hardware independence | Simulate even when sensor is out of stock | void setup() pinMode(2
