Description This variable is the thermal inertia of the upper material.
Units - Change Card Index Units: J m-2 s-1/2 K-1 Change Card Index: 1 3
Usage Layer 1 is the atmosphere. This material property begins at layer 2 and continues until it is switched at the layer set by the variable "IC".

Parameter Variable and Physical Definition
Surface Thermal Inertia: The reluctance of a material to change temperature through heat transfer.
Davinci Usage
- Definition:
- Thermal Inertia Value of the top layer of the surface
- Values:
- Input = Real Value Parameter
- Units: J m-2 s-1/2 K-1
- Range = Greater than 0
- Default Value = Value from 2 ppd TES
- Input Parameter Name:
- INERTIA
KRC Usage
- Definition:
- Surface Thermal Inertia
- Values:
- Input = Real Value Parameter in F10.2 FORTRAN format
- i.e. Floating point value, with a field width of 10, including leading blank spaces, plus or minus sign, decimal point and 2 integers after the decimal point.
- Units: Same as Davinci
- Range = Greater than 0
- Default Value = 200.0
- Input Parameter Name:
- Same as Davinci (Old Parameter Name Listed in Helplist as: SKRC)
- Example:
- See the default master input file as an example: master.inp
