Hello,
on Fluent, a friend of mine, setting properties of a gas found that unit for reference state entropy is J/kgmol*K. That's not clear to me. J/kgmol*K=J/(g*K) or J/(kmol*K) or J/(kg*K)? Or what? I found an old post here about that It says simply that kgmol=kmol and so J/kgmol*K=J/(kmol*K). Is it correct? Thanks |

1 kg mol is indeed 1 kmol (or 1 gmol is 1 mol).
Chemists like to think that the molecular weight must always be expressed in gm/mol which gives rise to the need to defined different moles when a different unit of mass is used. |

Ok,
so, to be more clear, also to future learners, the correct interpretation in SI units is J/kgmol*K= J/(kmol*K) Thanks |
