.BusinessSimulation.Units.AmountRate .BusinessSimulation.Units.AmountRateThe throughput of some amount, e.g., basically a flow of discretely counted entities, measured in each/s.
Rate can be used for fractional rates of flow or for the throughput of a continuously measured, dimensionless quantity, AmountRate is to be used for the throughput of discretely countable entities like people, tangible assets, and material.Rate for a fractional rate allows unit checking to catch unit mismatch in cases when a fractional rate has not been multiplied by some amount.AmountRate is similar to the MolarFlowRate used in Chemistry: We can succinctly describe flows of similar substances, i.e., entities, while avoiding the need to name each and every entity—an advantage with regard to component reuse.each/s will be shown as #/s in Model Center and Simulation Center.type AmountRate = Rate(quantity = "Throughput", unit = "each/s");
quantity from "AmountRate" to "Throughput" in v2.2.
