init_composition

Purpose:

Initialize gas composition.

Enter:

init_composition [filename] [-l]

Where:

filename

Optional. Specify the filename that contains the specifications of the gases being used at the test cell. The default is /specs/properties/comp_specs.nnn where nnn is the est cell number.

-l

Optional. Specify this flag to display the complete list of valid strings on the monitor. The process terminates after listing the valid strings.

Example:

init_composition /specs/properties/comp.103
The above command spawns init_composition which will use the file /specs/properties/comp.103 for the initialization.

Notes:

This command is normally spawned in the go script. This process reads the spec file to determine which streams are in use at this test cell. It then reads the initial composition values of each stream from a file in the /specs/properties/ directory.
