[Minor] Specifying physical properties of the working fluid (density and viscosity) #4

Closed piyueh closed 5 years ago

piyueh commented 5 years ago

The physical properties may be needed by the evaporation and infiltration models in the future. The users should be able to set these properties during runtime as input parameters.

However, at the current stage, they are not needed, so this feature is deemed as a minor issue.

piyueh commented 5 years ago

The current version already accepts constant density and viscosity input. But we may consider adding support for temperature dependent viscosity. In other words, users provide temperature, and we calculate the viscosity in the solver.
