Coal Combustion - Devolatilization Rate Unit
 
Just wondering if I can change the unit of reporting results of devolatilization rate of burning coal from kg/s (Fluent default) to other units, say kg/m3s ?

Thank you.

I think your stuck with what Fluent uses. I usually write output files and import to excel/MATLAB where you can change the units manually and do multi-plots and such.

Ledombo,

thanks for ur reply. But does it make sense to report devolatilization rate in kg/s ? is it a common unit used?

Yes, I think kg/s makes sense and is an SI unit.
