1. INTRODUCTION 
The use of special names for patches or variables is a powerful and
  flexible technique which users can employ for defining and controlling
  the flow simulations performed by PHOENICS.
Many such names are employed in the versions of PHOENICS which are delivered
to users. They are here called 'reserved names'; and users are warned that,
when introducing new variables for their own use, they should always 
avoid using those which are reserved. In particular, although they may
rename any of the first 17 reserved variables, they should not seek to give them 
any non-standard physical significance. For example, to re-name H1 
(first-phase sepcific enthalpy) as EPOT (electric potential) could have 
undesired consequences.
This Encyclopaedia article provides lists, and brief explanations of the
names which have been reserved so far.
   Numerous new reserved names of variables have been introduced into PHOENICS
   in recent years, especially in order to facilitate:
   
   The recently-introduced features are listed in the 'included' COMMON file
   lbnamer where explanatory comments
   are to be found.

3.2 Variables which may be placed in any order
   When the command: STORE(reserved name)
   appears in a Q1 file, the PHOENICS solver module, EARTH, computes, and makes
   available for printing or graphical display, the corresponding quantity,
   as explained below.
   
   It should however be understood that the STORE statement may not be
   sufficient. Thus:
   
   -  STORE(AREE) will always produce the east areas, because
   they always are computed, whereas
    
-  STORE(CFIP) will produce non-default values only if other
   commands (viz ONEPHS = F, etc) have been supplied to ensure that
   the inter-phase friction coefficient is actually being computed.

- hash-name variablesFor a reason explained under
    'partial names' below, many reserved names have # as the first character.- 
    The following allow the
    'status' of the cells
    in the domain to be recorded, for
    printing or graphical display, in 3D-variable manner. - 
    They correspond to the names of logical variables which users who engage in
    the addition of
    Fortran programming to
    PHOENICS can exploit.
 - 
 - 
- #EBO, indicating that the East boundary is
    either a domain boundary or adjoins a VAC cell

- Partial names.- 
    Additionally, significance is attached to certain characters when they
    appear in particular positions in the names of variables, as follows:
 - 
-         # as the first character of the name will prevent
          EARTH from automatically setting its value to
          zero within cells occupied by solids, as is done
          for all variables except:
          R1, R2, RS, H1, H2, TEM1, TEM2, T3,EPOR, NPOR, HPOR, BLOK, and PRPS.
-         % as the fourth character allows the
RESIDUALS of a
  solved-for variable to be stored and printed. However the
  In-Form 'RESI'
  feature does the same job more neatly.
            
 
-         C as the fourth character allows the values of the 'corrections'
          of a solved-for variable to be stored and printed. However the
  In-Form 'CORR'
  feature does the same job more neatly.
 
4. FORTRAN VARIABLES USED FOR PROPERTIES
PHOENICS users who make use of the Ground-coding facility should also be
aware of the integer variables used for accessing material properties, namely those contained in COMMON/IPROPS/ to be found in the file prpcmn in D_INCLUD.
They are:
      COMMON/IPROPS/DENST1,CMPRS1,DENST2,CMPRS2,VISTRB,VISCLM,PRNLAM,
     1              INTVL1,INTVL2,TEMPR1,TEMPR2,MIXLN1,MIXLN2,SPEHT1,
     1              SPEHT2,THRME1,THRME2,EMISSV,SCATTR,NAMSP3,INTFCO,
     1              INTMTR,INTRC1,INTRC2,IVRMCO,NAMSP4(5)
  
The meanings of all of these quantities are best understood by reading comments at the top of the Fortran file gxprutil.for ,
as follows
It should be noted that each has a prescribed value, which should on
no account be changed.
