Unit of Density Gradient
 
Dear friends,

I got the Density Gradient in Tecplot360.

Could you tell me the Unit of Density Gradient?

Thank you in advance.

Eric

It should depend on the units of your density field and mesh coordinates.

Thank you.

I use the Unit kg/m^3 for the density, and Cartesian coordinate system.

The gradient dimension is going to be (units of density)/(units of length). As nobody said - it depends on the units you are using. A cartesian grid system could have length units of meters, inches or parsecs. You should be able to figure this out.
