Data format:
A single line with 5 parameters, as follows:
RHO_SW G RHO_AIR VISCO_SW VISCO_AIR
Status:
Optional
Purpose:
To specify general physical constants, that define the mass, time and force units of the model.
Details :
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
RHO_SW | Mass of the fluid per unit volume (by default : RHO = 1025 kg/m3 (sea water)) |
G | Acceleration of Gravity (by default : G = 9.81 m/s2) |
RHO_AIR | Air density (by default : RHOAIR = 1.293 kg/)m3 |
VISCO_SW | Water kinematic viscosity. (by default VISCO = 1.30064e-6 m2/s-1) |
VISCO_AIR | Air kinematic viscosity (by default VISCOAIR = 1.57e-5 m2/s-1) |
