Hello,

I just used Converge for engine calculation, and I found the unit of heat release rate in the output file "thermo.out" is "J/time", what exactly it is for engine application, J/deg, J/s, or J/ms?
Thank you for your kind help.

Best wishes

Yaopeng

The unit for the heat release rate should depend on the crank_flag. If the simulation time is in seconds (crank_flag = 0), it would be J/s. If it is in deg (crank_flag = 1 or 2), it should be in J/deg
