Table 8: Fluid Material Choices
This list is provided as an example. Additional liquids are added periodically. Select the appropriate liquid from the list or
select Custom fluid if the liquid is not listed.
If a fluid material was chosen from the Fluid Material list, a nominal value for speed of sound, specific gravity, viscosity, and
specific heat capacity for that material will be automatically loaded. If actual values are known for the specific fluid system
and those values vary from the automatically loaded value, the value can be revised by selecting the Custom fluid choice and
entering the appropriate values.
