Torque

[evantandersen]

There is currently no support for units of torque. Newton meters, pound feet, etc.

What do you mean exactly? Could you give me some example?

Quantities below seem to work as expected:

new Qty('12 N*m');
new Qty('12 pound ft');

[evantandersen]

(new Qty('12 pound ft')).to('N m')

Throws an exception.

[rage-shadowman]

pound*ft is not the same as foot-pound... try the unit "pound-force" or "lbf" instead

new Qty('12 lbf').to('N');
new Qty('12 lbf*ft').to('N*m');

As pointed out by @rage-shadowman, pounds are mass not force so as expected pound*feet cannot be converted to torque. Try to use SI units when unsure.

(new Qty('N*m')).toBase().units(); // => "kg*m2/s2"
(new Qty('lbs*ft')).toBase().units(); // => "kg*m"
(new Qty('lbf*ft')).toBase().units(); // => "kg*m2/s2"

I also have to add documentation about supported units.
