MASS FLOW RATE: Specify fluid mass flow rate in a heat transfer analysis.
This option is used to specify the mass flow rate per unit are a (or through the entire s ection for one-dimensional
elements) for forced convection/diffusion elements in a heat transfer analysis. This option cannot be used with
hydrostatic fluid elements.

Optional parameters:
AMPLITUDE
Set this parameter equal to the name of the amplitude versus time curve that defines the magnitude
of the flow rate during the step (“Amplitude curves, ” Section 27.1.2 of the ABAQUS Analysis
User’s Manual). If this parameter is omitted, the reference magnitude is applied immediately at the
beginning of the step or linea rly over the step, depending on the value assigned to the AMPLITUDE
parameter on the
*
STEP option (“Procedures: overview,” Section 6.1.1 of the ABAQUS Analysis
User’s Manual).
INPUT
Set this parameter equal to the name of the alternate input file containing the data lines for this
option. See “Input syntax rules,” Section 1.2.1 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual, for the
syntax of such file names. If this parameter is omitted, it is assumed that the data follow the keyword
line.
OP
Set OP=MOD (default) for existing
*
MASS FLOW RATE values to remain, with this option
modifying existing flow rates or defining additional flow rates.
Set OP=NEW if all existing
*
MASS FLOW RATE values applied to the model should be
removed.
USER
Include this parameter to indicate that user subroutine UMASFL will be used to define mass flow
rate values. UMASFL will be called for each node given on the data lines. If values are also given
on the data lines, these values will be ignored.
