Re: [Gfs-devel] Query about GfsSourceTension

[Robson Nazareth]

Hello everyone,

I realised that in fundamental dimensions the surface tension coefficient has units of [M.T^-2].

But I still keep my question about the function below (I only would like to understand it better):

gfs_function_set_units (GFS_SOURCE_TENSION_GENERIC (s)->sigma, 1.);

in GfsSourceTension (tension.c line 327).

Considering the function 'gfs_function_set_units ()' sets the spatial dimension [L], why this function is setting [L^1] for the surface tension coefficient?

Regards,

Robson
