[TRNSYS-users] viscosity conversion in type 156 reads wrong

[David BRADLEY]

Nidal,

   I don't know if anyone followed up with you about this but you are 
correct; the conversion factor has an error in it. You can fix the issue 
by opening the Studio and selecting "unit dictionary" from the "tools" 
menu. Select "dynamic viscosity" then click on the "poise" equivalent 
unit. Click "edit" and change the conversion factor (and associated 
comments) from 1.0 to 0.1.

  Apologies for the error! A fixed version will be included with the 
next Trnsys update.

kind regards,

  David
