Property Editor

Use the Property Editor to modify the input to all types of Flow Simulator entities, such as elements, chambers, resistors, nodes, and components. By default, the items shown are the most important and may be all that you need to change. The options with blue text must have user input. The options under Show More and Advanced Options contain inputs that are not used as often.

Element Connections

The Property Editor is also used to change an element (or thermal resistor) connection. The new chamber (or node) can be selected from the modeling window view, or enter a new chamber ID.

Multi-Edit

Use the Property Editor to modify several model items simultaneously. To “multi-edit”, select multiple items from the modeling window using the Shift key, or sweep a rectangle. The Property Editor will display the common inputs for the selected items. Change an input by entering a new value or selecting a new option from a drop-down. All selected items will now have this changed input.

Selection Filter

Use the Property Editor selection filter to select a specific item type from all selected items. For instance, click Orifice-Conventional to retain these elements after a swept rectangle picked many items from the modeling window.
