Regarding the unit of acceleration in Ansys
Thread Content
This post was last edited by *nchen on 2015-11-3 13:46. If the units are mm, N, MPa, and kg, what should be the unit for acceleration in Ansys? m/s^2 or mm/s^2? Thank you
It doesn’t matter what you choose; 9.8 m/s^2 is equal to 9800 mm/s^2. I set it to 9800 mm/s^2 in almost all cases.
In this case, 9800 mm/s^2 will suffice. For the detailed correspondence between units, you can refer to \"Application of ANSYS in Mechanical and Chemical Equipment\"; I forget which page it is on, but there is a table listed there.
