How can I change the molecular weight of non-condensable gas in the cavitation model?

      In the cavitation model, unless otherwise specified, noncondensable gas is air with molecular weight 29.0. However, you can change the molecular weight of the non-condensable gas in the following command: (rpsetvar ‘mp/cvt/ncg-molecular-weight 32.0) In the above example, the molecular weight of the non-condensable gas is changed to 32.0. You can also check the molecular weight with the following command: (rpgetvar ‘mp/cvt/ncg-molecular-weight)
