      How to code UDF PROPERTIES FLUENT for:
      The properties of the coolant hydrogen are significantly sensitive to temperature changes. The characteristics of hydrogen were assessed using an online database supplied by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for a pressure of 3 MPa and a temperature range of 287 Ke1000 K. The critical pressure and temperature of hydrogen are known to be 1.29 MPa and 33 K, respectively. User-Defined Functions represent the physical properties related to the temperature at the same critical pressure to represent the coolant hydrogen's physical properties.
      Thanks for your support!

      Hi,

      You can use DEFINE_PROPERTY. For more details you can refer to Ansys Customization manual: 2.3. Model-Specific DEFINE Macros (ansys.com)

      Just remember, you can't have properties dependent on pressure without using Ideal Gas or some of the Real Gas models.
