12.1.6.10. MW_AVG¶
Data Type: DOUBLE PRECISION
Average molecular weight of gas [kg/kmol in SI]. Used in calculating the gas density for non-reacting flows when the gas composition is not defined.
12.1.6.11. MW_G(SPECIES)¶
Data Type: DOUBLE PRECISION
\(1 \le Species \le 100\)
Molecular weight of gas species [kg/kmol in SI].
12.1.6.12. NMAX_G¶
