Hello Of course, I find Ultimate converter best unit converter open source app. But I want to suggest the addition of the following, 13 new unique physical quantities in it. Viscosity Circulation Vorticity Angle Discharge MOI Surface tension Specific weight Wavenumber Capacitance Magnetic intensity Electric current Momentum The units of these quantities are

●Viscosity: This resistance offered to flow. SI unit: Pascal sec Cgs: Poise

Since I 'm dealing with the unit converter I should mention conversion value 1Pascal sec =10 poise

●Circulation: Line integral of tangential velocity. SI unit:m² /sec Cgs:cm² /sec

●Vorticity: Circulation per unit area Si unit: /sec Cgs:/sec( same as SI unit)

●Angle: Angular distance between two lines

units: rad and degrees

●Discharge: Volume per unit sec

Si unit: m³/sec Cgs: cm³/sec

●MOI: Analogue of mass in angular motion

SI unit: m4 Cgs:cm4

●Surface tension: Energy per unit area SI unit: Newton/m Cgs unit: dyne/cm

●Specific weight: Weight per unit volume SI unit: N/m3 Cgs: Dyne/cm3

●Wavenumber: 1/wavelength Si unit: :m−1 Cgs Unit:cm−1

●Capacitance: Ability of a capacitor to store charge. SI unit: Farad

●Magnetic intensity: Effect of magnetic flux on the conductor. Si unit: Newton-m/Ampere Cgs:Dyne-cm/A

●Electric current: Charge per unit time Si unit: Ampere Cgs unit: Columb/sec

●Momentum: Net effect of mass and velocity. SI unit: Kg-m/sec Cgs:g-cm/sec

Good suggestions here

Under "Discharge", units should be volume per unit time. It would be useful to expanding to include all available units of volume and time as well. For example, converting flows from cubic feet per second to gallons per minute is very common in certain types of engineering.

m4 -> m⁴ m-1 -> m⁻¹
