<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear all</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is there any way we can change the fluid properties
of passing through the active layer in TYPE56? Currently default water as
working fluid however you can change the specific capacity but no way to
change its density, and thermal conductivity. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any help?</FONT> </P>
