*MASS FLOW RATE
Data lines to define mass flow rates:
First line:
1. Node number or node set label.
2. Mass flow rate per unit area in the x-direction (units of ML
−2
T
−1
) or total mass flow rate in the
cross-section (units of MT
−1
) for one-dimensional elements.
3. Mass flow rate per unit area in the y-direction (not needed for nodes associated with one-
dimensional elements).
4. Mass flow rate per unit area in the z-direction (not needed for nodes associated with one-
dimensional elements).
Repeat this data line as often as necessary to define mass flow rates at different nodes.
Data lines to define mass flow rates using user subroutine UMASFL:
First line:
1. Node set or node number.
Repeat this data line as often as necessary. UMASFL will be called for each node listed.
