Output Variables
This section describes the outputs you can obtain from the Multicomponent Mixing module. The following types of data are available for output from the Multicomponent Mixing module:
Primary Variables
Properties Variables
Derived Variables
Output of Primary Variables
Primary variables are the fundamental variables that characterize the physical process in the module. They are usually obtained by directly solving transport equations or through physical constitutions.

Primary variables are automatically activated for selected geometric entities such as boundaries, derived surfaces, interfaces, streamlines, particles, or volumes depending on the modules and models that you select.
Output of Property Variables
Property variables are the physical properties for the fluids and solids in the domain. They are required as part of the solution.

Physical property output for the Multicomponent Mixing module is automatically activated for selected volumes and boundaries, except point probes, depending on the models that are selected.
Output of Derived Variables
Derived variables are engineering data computed from the primary variables. While not required as part of the solution, they can provide valuable information for analysis of the results.
