uom::si::f64::AvailableEnergy not working
calbaker opened this issue · 1 comments
I'm trying to provide a type for a struct field like this:
pub SomeStruct {
/// specific energy of fuel
pub specific_energy: uom::si::f64::AvailableEnergy,
}
which results in
error: Unknown si quantity!
--> fastsim-core/src/vehicle/powertrain/fuel_storage.rs:13:26
|
13 | pub specific_energy: uom::si::f64::AvailableEnergy,
| ^^^
The work is in an open source project, so if needed, I could share the full source code.
@iliekturtles , I edited the above because I had it wrong about uom::si::f64::AvailableEnergy
and uom::si::f64::Pressure
having the same units. Pressure has the same units as energy density, and uom::si::f64::AvailableEnergy
has the same units as specific energy. I'd also advocate for changing AvailableEnergy
to SpecificEnergy
because AvailableEnergy
might get confused with thermodynamic availability, aka exergy, which is not exactly the same thing. Availability usually has energy units, e.g. joules. Specific availibility has the same units as specific energy and uom::si::f64::AvailableEnergy
.
