If, e.g., the temperature fluctuations at the measuring point are low compared to the temperature dependence of the mate-
rial properties, the linearization or the complete neglect of the temperature dependency will not result in a considerable ad-
ditional measuring error.
If, however, the process conditions fluctuate strongly and the fluid parameters depend strongly on the temperature (e.g.,
viscosity of hydraulic oil), polynomials or customized interpolation functions should be used. Contact FLEXIM to find the
best solution for the measuring task.
Customized Interpolation Functions
Some dependencies are only approximated insufficiently by polynomials. A number of customized interpolation functions
Basics: Y=F(X,Z)
are available to interpolate multidimensional dependencies
y = f(T, p)
. For further information
contact FLEXIM.

Input of the Material/Fluid Parameters
The parameter of a user defined material/fluid can be entered now.
The input of a material or a fluid is almost identical. Therefore, the displays for a fluid will only be shown and described in
case of differences.

This error message will be displayed if the coefficient memory does not contain an area for
user defined materials/fluids.
Partition the coefficient memory accordingly (see section 15.1).
