Confusion between degrees celcius and kelvin #66

Open ddi-acassidy opened 2 years ago

ddi-acassidy commented 2 years ago

Physical cannot distinguish between kelvin and celsius, and will always print temperatures in celsius, even if its an absolute temperature given in kelvin

Im not sure what the right solution is here, since its hard for it to know when to operate on temperatures as an absolute value (where Celsius and Kelvin are different), and when to operate on them as a delta temperature (where they are the same)

I guess as a stopgap I can remove celsius entirely

Any new updates on this issue???

Look at this file example ... search for defined units difC & degC https://github.com/defencedog/jupyterNotebooks/blob/main/akinsan_pressdrop/ukhan.json

It would be useful to have a description of how to deal with temperature units to be able to work with Celcius as many structural design standards require.
