Output Variables
This section describes the outputs you can obtain from the Dynamics module.
The syntax for the Variable list is as follows:
<Variable Name> <Space>:<Space>[<Unit>]<Space>:<Space><Module name>
For example: Pressure : [Pa] : Flow
Output of Integrated Quantities
Integrated quantities are quantities that are integrated over a boundary, interface or volume. When available and activated, they are stored in the ascii file Filename_integrals.txt.
