Calculation of all outputs

2.1 User interface and general rules


The program has an easy-to-use yet powerful user interface. The main program
window is the one below.

Note that only the period "." is accepted as a decimal point from the program.
You are not allowed to use the comma ",". In fact, all typed commas are automatically
transformed to periods in the input value text box.
In this help file, the comma "," is used as a thousands separator.

2.2 Standard use example


Example use of the program:

We want to convert 100 feet (ft) to millimetres.

Below are the instructions in order to do that using the program:

1. First, we select the unit category with the radio buttons on top.

(c) 2017 EngiLab SMPC


Program use 7

In this case, we select the "Length - Distance" category above.

2. We select the input unit from this category, using the input combo menu

(c) 2017 EngiLab SMPC


8 EngiLab Units 2018 v2.1 User Manual

In this example, we select the "foot (ft)" unit.

3. We type in the value of the length in feet, as shown below.

After typing the value, we need to press the ENTER key or click on another location

(c) 2017 EngiLab SMPC


Program use 9

on the form for the value to be validated (accepted) by the program.

4. We select the output unit from the category, using the output combo menu

5. The result appears in the Output text box

(c) 2017 EngiLab SMPC


10 EngiLab Units 2018 v2.1 User Manual

As shown above, in this example, the result is: 100 ft = 30,480 mm

2.3 Web browser


Usually, we need to check the definition of a unit or study more about the specific
unit, its origins, use and others. Instead of having to google using a separate browser,
EngiLab Units features a built-in web browser with ready-to-use links to Wikipedia
articles for certain units. All one has to do is click the "Show info" button, either for
the input or the output unit.
See for example the screenshot below which shows the Wikipedia article for
"Standard gravity".

(c) 2017 EngiLab SMPC


Program use 11

Note: Not all units in EngiLab Units support this feature as not all units have a
Wikipedia article associated with them. The "Show info" button is only activated for
units that have either their own Wikipedia article, or an article which is relevant to
them.

2.4 Calculation of all outputs


By clicking the "Calculate all Outputs" button, we get the equivalent values of all the
units of the category, as shown below for the example of 1 kg.
All 26 results are given with the click of a button.

1 British_thermal_unit
The most widespread BTU uses the
International Steam Table (IT) calorie, which
was defined by the Fifth International
Conference on the Properties of Steam
(London, July 1956) to be exactly 4.1868 J.
The value of 1055.05585262 J for BTU [IT]
is also exact.
Note: A BTU was originally defined as the
amount of heat required to raise the
temperature of 1 avoirdupois pound of liquid
water by 1 degree Fahrenheit at a constant
pressure of one atmosphere. As with the
calorie, several definitions of the Btu exist,
because the temperature response of water
to heat energy is non-linear. This means that
the change in temperature of a water mass
caused by adding a certain amount of heat
to it will be a function of the water's initial
temperature. Definitions of the Btu based on
different water temperatures can therefore
vary by up to 0.5%.

exact) ALTHOUGH IT IS THE TYPICAL VALUE FOUND
IN THE LITERATURE FOR THIS UNIT

Note: The electronvolt is by definition the


amount of energy gained (or lost) by the
charge of a single electron moving across an
electric potential difference of one volt. Thus
it is 1 volt multiplied by the elementary
charge (1.6021766208(98)×10-19 C).
Therefore, one electronvolt is equal to
1.6021766208(98)×10-19 J.
Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Elementary_charge

Here, the value of 1.6021766208×10- 1 9 C is


used as the value for the elementary charge.
The number in parentheses (98) describes
the uncertainty in the measurement. The
same value is reported in Wikipedia and also
here:

Note that for the units based on mercury (millimetre of mercury [conv.] (mmHg),
centimetre of mercury [conv.] (cmHg), inch of mercury [conv.] (inHg), foot of mercury
[conv.] (ftHg)) and the units based on water (millimetre of water [conv.] (mmAq),
centimetre of water [conv.] (cmAq), inch of water [conv.] (inAq), foot of water
[conv.] (ftAq)), other similar definitions can be found in the literature, referring to
different base temperatures, as the density of the material depends on its
temperature. In the above we have used the conventional values that can be found in
the literature.
