Units

One of the more powerful features of GoldSim is that it is dimensionally aware. This capability is enabled by assigning display units (and hence dimensions) to the elements of a model. GoldSim has an extensive internal database of units (all of these units are listed in Appendix D of the GoldSim User’s Guide) and custom units can be created. In this model, Data and Expression elements are used to demonstrate how a GoldSim model maintains unit consistency based on the defined display unit.Units casting is also introduced in the example at the bottom.
