7.6.20.11.5. K_Factor

Syntax

Venting Volumetric Flow Rate [{of} SpeciesName] = K_Factor [Flow_Rate_Limiter = flow_rate_limiter]

Scope

Aria Material

Summary

Volumetric flow rate, Q, calculated as Q = K \sqrt{\frac{P - P_{ambient}}{\rho}}. Absent any other sources, the maximum flow rate is defined based on the mass loss to achieve pressure equilibrium and the fluid time step. If the optional flow rate limiter is specified, the flow rate is limited by the product of the limiter factor and the maximum flow rate without any other sources.
