Hi All,

Can someone give me a sanity check; I'm running a 3-D, fluid-only, NS 
simulation using true dimensions in my grid (meters); air is the fluid; 
I want to use constant properties.

I'm using the following:

  ****** PARAMETERS *****
     2.610000     NEKTON VERSION
             3 DIMENSIONAL RUN
           103 PARAMETERS FOLLOW
    1.205                p1  DENSITY
    .00001511       p2  VISCOS
    0.
    0.
    0.
    0.
    0.                     p7  RHOCP
    0.                     p8  CONDUCT
    0.

For my conditions, I'm taking air density at 1.205 kg/m3; kinematic 
viscosity at 1.511E-5 m2/s.  I'm leaving Cp and k at zero since I have 
no energy equation.

Am I missing anything?  Just wanted to be sure that I'm running in 
dimensional mode with all values in the right place...

Thanks,
Murph
