This package contains blocks to convert quantities from the unit system in FCSys (see FCSys.Units) to quantities expressed in units or vice versa. The UnitConversion block has a parameter that configures it to convert to or from any of the supported units. All other blocks convert to or from a predefined unit.
Blocks are only included for
units that involve offsets or other functions besides simple scaling.
For conversions that require just a scaling factor, it is best to use
the Modelica.Blocks.Math.Gain
block with the appropriate factors from Units package
(U). For example, to convert from potential in volts use:
Modelica.Blocks.Math.Gain from_V(k=U.V);
To convert to current in amperes use:
Modelica.Blocks.Math.Gain to_A(k=1/U.A);
