Description

The $DECAY keyword specifies, if the component decays in the phase in which it is transported. The decay does not account for the production of daughter products. Decay with a kinetics of any order as well as a Monod kinetics is accounted for. Default is no decay.

Parameters

$DECAY 0

$DECAY
1 1.0e-6 1.0 /method decay_rate order_of_decay(first order kinetic)
