Hello
I'm new to CFD and I'm trying to simulate a gas cooled reactor.



I need to add two materials for my simulation, Xenon and Uranium Oxide. How can I add custom material to Star, what parameters I'm gonna need and where can I find those parameters?
Is there a third-party material database that I can import?


Thanks

I guess - uranium oxide is in solid state?
Then you'll need to set two physics (one for gas, another for uranium oxide) and assign them to corresponding regions.
