1. Although not normally used in this manner, the following commands also allow tabular loading: BFA,
   BFK,BFL,BFV,DA,DK,DL,FK,SFA, and SFL.

See the *DIM command for more information on defining your labels.

The VELOCITY label refers to the magnitude of the velocity degrees of freedom or the computed fluid
velocity in FLUID116 elements.
