Required parameters
- NAME
-
Set this parameter equal to a label that will be used to refer to the fluid exchange property.
- TYPE
-
Set TYPE=BULK VISCOSITY to define fluid exchange where the mass flow rate is related to the pressure difference by both viscous and hydrodynamic resistance coefficients.
Set TYPE=ENERGY FLUX to define fluid exchange by specifying the heat energy flow rate leakage explicitly. This parameter value applies only to Abaqus/Explicit analyses.
Set TYPE=ENERGY RATE LEAKAGE to define fluid exchange by specifying the heat energy flow rate as a function of temperature difference and pressure. This parameter value applies only to Abaqus/Explicit analyses.
Set TYPE=FABRIC LEAKAGE to define fluid exchange due to fabric leakage.
Set TYPE=MASS FLUX to define fluid exchange by specifying the mass flow rate leakage explicitly.
Set TYPE=MASS RATE LEAKAGE to define fluid exchange by specifying the mass flow rate as a function of pressure difference and temperature.
Set TYPE=ORIFICE to define fluid exchange through a vent orifice. This parameter value applies only to Abaqus/Explicit analyses.
Set TYPE=VOLUME FLUX to define fluid exchange by specifying the volume rate leakage explicitly.
Set TYPE=VOLUME RATE LEAKAGE to define fluid exchange by specifying the volume rate leakage as a function of pressure difference and temperature.
Set TYPE=USER to indicate that user subroutine VUFLUIDEXCH is used in Abaqus/Explicit to define fluid exchange by specifying the mass flow rate and/or heat energy flow rate.
Optional parameters
- CONSTANTS
-
This parameter applies only to Abaqus/Explicit analyses.
Set this parameter equal to the number of constant values needed as data to define the fluid exchange in user subroutine VUFLUIDEXCH. The default is CONSTANTS=0.
- DEPENDENCIES
-
Set this parameter equal to the number of field variables included in the specification of the coefficients defined by the TYPE parameter. If this parameter is omitted, the coefficients are assumed not to depend on any field variables.
- DEPVAR
-
This parameter applies only to Abaqus/Explicit analyses.
Set this parameter equal to the number of solution-dependent state variables required for user subroutine VUFLUIDEXCH. The default is DEPVAR=0.
