This chapter describes how to define materials, the physical equations used to compute material properties, and the methods you can use for each property input. Each property is described in detail in the following sections. If you are using one of the general multiphase models (VOF, mixture, or Eulerian), see Defining the Phases for information about how to define the individual phases and their material properties.
