Units tips or laws
Posted: Wed Jan 31, 2024 1:08 pm
Hi, one general query.
Is there any compilation of laws or best practices for assigning or using units? I mean, which units should be used for each type of variable according to the functions assigned to them, especially when functions are complex or nested.
For examples:
- Use these units and format for flow variables.
- Use these units format for stock variables.
- For auxiliary variables employing functions like DELAY, INTEGER, IF THEN ELSE, PULSE TRAIN, etc., it is recommended to use these units or type of unit.
- Tips for ensuring coherence between equations, etc.
When one is a novice or intermediate and has to develop large models, inconsistencies in units, even when being meticulous and studying their assignment, are often numerous.
Thank you very much.
