Help about Units of Measurement

[jocilene.barros]

Hello, thank you for accepting me on the forum.

I have a query of beginner:
I can utility unit of measurement different in Vensim?
The Vensim interpret each variable with unit of measurement different and analyze the system as a whole consistently anyway?

Greetings from Brazil

I'm not quite sure what you're asking, but
(a) units don't affect simulation results, so the model will work regardless of the consistency of the units (though if they're inconsistent, the model is unlikely to be right)
(b) models typically employ a wide variety of units. You might want to look through some of the sample models that install with the Vensim help system (typically in c:\users\public\vensim or similar).

Hello tomfid,
My question was if I would have problems using a variety of units in the model. You solved my doubt with these two points. Thank you!

Ah, yes. Having a variety of units is completely normal. Good luck!
