Problem with unit setting

[MartinMcD]

Hello,

I am trying to get to grips with the 'Unit Convert' block. I have it working fine to set the unit of a raw number to kPa etc.

However, I have a speed reading which at the moment is a unit-less number but is actually an rpm value. I can't use Unit Convert to go to 'rpm' or 'revolutions/s' etc. I can do 'Hz/m' but that is a not very helpful. I imagine this is a common requirement. I'm probably missing something simple - can anyone help please?

Thanks,

Martin

The closest you might be able to get with the built-in units is just a frequency: Hz. That might be sufficient, though.

I believe the SI units for angular velocity is radians per second.

I entered "rad/s" (use the time seconds s; not the " angular seconds) as the units and it was accepted.
