Specify variable or constant compartment capacity
The ConstantCapacity property indicates whether
the capacity of the compartment object can vary during the simulation. ConstantCapacity can
be either true (1) or false (0).
If ConstantCapacity is true,
the quantity of the compartment cannot vary during the simulation.
By default, ConstantCapacity is true and
the quantity of the compartment cannot vary during the simulation.
If ConstantCapacity is false,
the quantity of the compartment can be determined by rules and events.

Add a compartment to a model and check the ConstantCapacity property
of the compartment.
Create a model object named comp_model.
modelObj = sbiomodel ('comp_model');Add the compartment object named nucleus with
a capacity of 0.5.
compartmentObj = addcompartment(modelObj, 'nucleus', 0.5);
Display the ConstantCapacity property.
get(compartmentObj, 'ConstantCapacity')
