Units of Measurement

For an introduction on dealing with units in Java, see Baeldung: Introduction to javax.measure.

Here some examples for valid units:

Symbol	Dimension
Hz	1/[T]
Bq	1/[T]
A	[I]
F	[I]²·[T]^4/([L]²·[M])
S	[I]²·[T]³/([L]²·[M])
C	[I]·[T]
cd	[J]
lm	[J]
lx	[J]/[L]²
m	[L]
m/s	[L]/[T]
km/h	[L]/[T]
m/s²	[L]/[T]²
m²	[L]²
Sv	[L]²/[T]²
Gy	[L]²/[T]²
H	[L]²·[M]/([I]²·[T]²)
Ω	[L]²·[M]/([I]²·[T]³)
Wb	[L]²·[M]/([I]·[T]²)
V	[L]²·[M]/([I]·[T]³)
J	[L]²·[M]/[T]²
W	[L]²·[M]/[T]³
l	[L]³
m³	[L]³
N	[L]·[M]/[T]²
kg	[M]
g	[M]
T	[M]/([I]·[T]²)
Pa	[M]/([L]·[T]²)
mol	[N]
kat	[N]/[T]
h	[T]
year	[T]
s	[T]
day	[T]
week	[T]
min	[T]
K	[Θ]
℃	[Θ]
one	one
%	one
rad	one
sr	one

Some units of special interest for Urban Simulation, partly introduced with Plug-in "City Units":

Symbol	Dimension
W·s	[L]²·[M]/[T]²
W·h	[L]²·[M]/[T]²
kW·h	[L]²·[M]/[T]²
MW·h	[L]²·[M]/[T]²
m³/min	[L]³/[T]
m³/h	[L]³/[T]
m³/s	[L]³/[T]
m³/d	[L]³/[T]
l/min	[L]³/[T]
W/m²	[M]/[T]³
ppm	one
dB	one
€	[$]
$	[$]

Note that monetary units have been added ad hoc to City Untis to model costs, but may be abandoned in future.
