Data Type: DOUBLE PRECISION
\(1 \le Phase \le 10\)
Applies to Solids Model(s): TFM, DEM
Specified constant solids density [kg/m^3 in SI]. Reacting flows may use variable solids density by leaving this parameter undefined and specifying X_S0 and RO_XS0 as well as the index of the inert species.
11.1.8.5. X_S0(PHASE, SPECIES)¶
Data Type: DOUBLE PRECISION
\(1 \le Phase \le 10\)
\(1 \le Species \le DIM{\_}N{\_}s\)
Applies to Solids Model(s): TFM, DEM
Baseline species mass fraction. Specifically, the mass fraction of an unreacted sample (e.g., proximate analysis).

11.1.8.7. INERT_SPECIES(PHASE)¶
Data Type: INTEGER

Applies to Solids Model(s): TFM, DEM
Index of inert solids phase species. This species should not be a product or reactant of any chemical reaction.
11.1.8.8. DIL_INERT_X_VSD(PHASE)¶
Data Type: DOUBLE PRECISION
\(1 \le Phase \le 10\)
Applies to Solids Model(s): TFM, DEM
Mass fraction of inert solids phase species in the dilute region. In dilute region (see DIL_FACTOR_VSD), the solids density is computed based on this inert species mass fraction, rather than the current inert species mass fraction. This may help convergence when the Variable Solids Density model is invoked.
11.1.8.9. DIL_FACTOR_VSD¶
Data Type: DOUBLE PRECISION
Applies to Solids Model(s): TFM, DEM
Factor to define the dilute region where the solids density is set using DIL_INERT_X_VSD. Cells where the solids volume fraction is between DIL_EP_S and DIL_EP_S x DIL_FACTOR_VSD will automatically set the solids density using DIL_INERT_X_VSD instead of the current inerts species mass fraction. Set this factor to zero to always use the current inert species mass fraction.

Data Type: DOUBLE PRECISION
\(1 \le Phase \le 10\)
Applies to Solids Model(s): TFM, DEM
