Description

Growth rate (m/s)

Specifies the estimated growth rate in m/s.The growth rate is defined positive, if the interface between the solid and the liquid phase is moving upwards in positive z direction (VGF furnaces). The growth rate is defined negative, if the interface is moving down as in Czochralski furnaces, see General process parameters.

Note

In time-dependent computation the growth rate must be set to 0.

Gas pressure (N/m^2)

Specifies the gas pressure in the furnace in N/m˛.

Gravity (m/s^2)

Specifies the gravity in m/s˛.
