}

The interpretation of MolVisc depends on the governing equations used in the simulation:

  • incompressible equations:

    MolVisc represents the kinematic viscosity.

  • compressible equations:

    MolVisc represents the dynamic viscosity.

This parameter is only used when MolViscModel is set to "Constant".
