Hmmmmm. I don't think that this should work as a science fair project. My advice would be to do a real project that involves observation of physical or chemical phenomena. Granted, your project would teach you about independent and dependent variables, which may or may not be the most important thing that you learn from a science project (depending on age, of course), but there's a whole lot more to learn from conducting a scientific experiment than that.

Plus, since OOTP is a "closed" system, you won't be able to explain why your hypothesis proved to be true or false.

Bad idea. Measure the effect of ice on soda carbonation or the effect of the length of the lever on a trebuchet's ability to throw a projectile, or anything but a computer simulation.
