Change Density to ideal gas because we are treating the flow as compressible. FLUENT will calcualte the density of the flow at each point based on the pressure and temperature it calculates at that point. Leave Cp set as the default value of 1006.43. Change Thermal Conductivity to 9.4505 e-4. Change Viscosity to 6.667e-7. Scroll down to see Molecular Weight. Leave Molecular Weight set to the default value of 28.966. These are the values that we specified under Problem Specification.

Click Change/Create. Simply clicking close without clicking Change/Create will cause these properties to revert back to their default values.
