It seems you'll want to define those through var properties.

Aloha Will,

You can set system-wide header arguments or set default values for a
buffer or heading.  See the Org mode manual, Section 14.8.1, Using
header arguments.

hth,
Tom

 I'm just getting started using Org Babel and I've run into a bit of an
 annoyance that I can't seem to find an answer to in the Org Babel docs. I
 find myself wanting to use one variable in multiple code blocks, for
 example, the path to a file. Org Babel provides several mechanisms for
 including array/list types, via tables and lists with a #+NAME line before
 them. However the only mechanism it provides for single variables is #+NAME
 before example blocks, which just seem clunky for something as trivial as a
 file path or numeric variable. Is there a more concise way to do simple
 variables, or am I stuck with the named example blocks?

 Thanks,
 Will
