Use the Convection and Diffusion node to define the fluid properties, velocity, diffusion coefficient, and dispersion model. This node as present by default.
The default Density ρ (SI unit: kg/m
3) uses the value
From material. For
User defined enter a different value or expression.
The default Dynamic viscosity μ (SI unit: Pa·s) uses the value
From material and describes the relationship between the shear rate and the shear stresses in a fluid. Intuitively, water and air have a low viscosity, and substances often described as thick, such as oil, have a higher viscosity.
Select a Dispersion model —
User defined (the default),
Taylor (laminar, circular cross section), or
Taylor (turbulent, circular cross section). For
User defined, enter a value or expression for the
Dispersion coefficient DD (SI unit: m
2/s). The default is 0 m
2/s. Find more detail in the theory section
