18.5. Results Output.
Hydrostatic pressure can be output as the HDSP degree-of-freedom solution.The solution value is the
change in hydrostatic pressure from the value at the start of the analysis. In the case of compressible
gas, the solution value is the change in hydrostatic pressure with respect to the reference pressure. If
any pressure value is specified using the IC command, then the value is added to the solution.
The following element output quantities are available for the HSFLD241 and HSFLD242 elements:
Output Quantity Symbol Meaning
DENSITY ρ Current fluid density
TVOL V Current total fluid volume
TMAS M Current total fluid mass
MFLO w Current fluid mass flow rate
TVOLO Vo Original total fluid volume
These NMISC output quantities provide results for the entire fluid volume, so all hydrostatic fluid elements
sharing the pressure node have the same output value. See the HSFLD241 and HSFLD242 element de-
scriptions for more information about output for these elements.
