| Physical Property Table | |
|---|---|
| Name | Defines the name of the physical property table. |
| Label | Defines the unique numeric identifier for the physical property table. |
| Properties | |
| Fluid Material | Assigns a fluid material to the associated 1D duct elements.Select a material from the list of materials assigned to the model, or click Choose material to define a new material. |
| Section Type | Specifies the type of cross section to assign to curves.ConstantSpecifies that the duct section is identical at all points along the element’s length.TaperedSpecifies that the duct section tapers. The taper is defined as a linear transition from the section defined as the Fore Section to the section defined as the Aft Section.Tip: To view positive and negative directions of the 1D mesh, right-click the 1D mesh node in the Simulation Navigator and choose Display Section. |
| Fore Section****Aft Section | Specify the appropriate duct cross sections. Choose a previously defined section from the list or click Show Section Manager to define a new section.Aft Section appears when Section Type is set to Tapered. |
| Apply taper to | Appears when Section Type is set to Tapered.Specifies how the taper is applied.Each Element(1) Applies the taper to each element.End Nodes of Chain(2) Applies the taper between the end nodes of a chain. |
