dc.descriptionWe present preliminary results on the energy budgets of clouds in two-dimensional numerical simulations of the interstellar medium. Using an automated cloud-identification algorithm, we calculate the gravitational, internal, kinetic and magnetic energies of the clouds. We find that, within a dispersion of roughly one order of magnitude, the gravitational energy in the clouds is balanced by the remaining energies. Furthermore, within the same dispersion, there appears to be equipartition between the kinetic and magnetic energies.
