Material exponent 1D simulation

[Wojciech Kaczmarek]

Hello,

Where I can find definition of material exponent used to model material properites in 1D solver?

Could you point me to literature where I can find reference values or method of estimation?

Best,
Wojciech

Hi Wojciech,

It's a bit misleading that "exponent" refers to the material. That parameter controls the polynomial order of the flow profile. For Poiseuille flow with a parabolic flow profile you would have a material exponent of two.

Hope this helps!
