Enumeration of predefined SBML base units.
Enumerator |
---|
UNIT_KIND_AMPERE |
Ampere ('A'); SI base unit of electrical current (I)
|
UNIT_KIND_AVOGADRO |
Avogadro; From the SBML specification, the unit 'dimensionless' multiplied with Avogadro's number
|
UNIT_KIND_BECQUEREL |
Bequerel ('Bq'); SI derived unit of radioactivity. Equivalent to s-1 .
|
UNIT_KIND_CANDELA |
Candela ('cd'); SI base unit of luminous intensity
|
UNIT_KIND_CELSIUS |
Celsius ('°C'); unit of measurement for temperature. Can either mean a specific temperature on the Celsius scale, or can indicate a temperature interval. This duality of purpose makes it a poor choice for a unit and is only included for completeness; use UNIT_KIND_KELVIN instead.
|
UNIT_KIND_COULOMB |
Coulomb ('C'); SI derived unit of electric charge (Q); the charge transported by a constant current of one ampere in one second (A x s ; also equivalent to F x V ).
|
UNIT_KIND_DIMENSIONLESS |
Dimensionless; Having no explicit dimensionality, from the SBML specification. Sometimes used for counts of items. Not equivalent to unknown!
|
UNIT_KIND_FARAD |
Farad ('F'); SI derived unit of electric capacitance. Equivalent to s4 x A2 x m-2 x kg-1
|
UNIT_KIND_GRAM |
Gram ('g'); SI derived unit of mass. Equivalent to 10-3 kg
|
UNIT_KIND_GRAY |
Gray ('Gy'); SI derived unit of absorbed dose, specific energy (imparted) and of kerma. Equivalent to one m2 x m-2 , or one J x kg-1 .
|
UNIT_KIND_HENRY |
Henry ('H'); SI derived unit of inductance. Equivalent to m2 x kg x s-2 x A-2
|
UNIT_KIND_HERTZ |
Hertz ('Hz'); SI base unit of frequency; a number of cycles per second of a periodic phenomenon.
|
UNIT_KIND_ITEM |
Item; From the SBML specification, 'item' is used for expressing such things as 'N items' when 'mole' is not an appropriate unit
|
UNIT_KIND_JOULE |
Joule ('J'); The SI derived unit of energy. Equivalent to kg x m2 x s-2.
|
UNIT_KIND_KATAL |
Katal ('kat'); The SI derived unit of catalytic activity. Equivalent to mol x s-1.
|
UNIT_KIND_KELVIN |
Kelvin ('K'); SI base unit of temperature.
|
UNIT_KIND_KILOGRAM |
Kilogram ('kg'); SI base unit of mass.
|
UNIT_KIND_LITER |
Liter ('L'); American spelling of the SI unit 'litre'. Here solely to catch the misspelling; use UNIT_KIND_LITRE instead.
|
UNIT_KIND_LITRE |
Litre ('L'); non-SI metric system of volume. Equivalent to 103cm3 .
|
UNIT_KIND_LUMEN |
Lumen ('lm'); SI derived unit of luminous flux. Equivalent to cd x sr .
|
UNIT_KIND_LUX |
Lux ('lx'); SI derived unit of luminous emittance. Equivalent to lm x m-2 .
|
UNIT_KIND_METER |
Meter ('m'); American spelling of the SI unit 'metre'. Here solely to catch the misspelling; use UNIT_KIND_METRE instead.
|
UNIT_KIND_METRE |
Metre ('m'); SI base unit of length.
|
UNIT_KIND_MOLE |
Mole ('mol'); SI base unit of amount. Defined as the amount of any substance that contains as many elementary entities as there are atoms in 12 grams of pure Carbon-12, which corresponds to the Avogadro constant. See UNIT_KIND_AVOGADRO.
|
UNIT_KIND_NEWTON |
Newton ('N'); SI derived unit of force. Equivalent to one kg x m x sec-2 .
|
UNIT_KIND_OHM |
Ohm ('Ω'); SI derived unit of electrical resistance. Equivalent to kg x m2 x s-3 x A-2 .
|
UNIT_KIND_PASCAL |
Pascal ('Pa'); SI derived unit of pressure. Equivalent to kg x m-1 x s-2 .
|
UNIT_KIND_RADIAN |
Radian ('rad'); SI derived unit of angular measure. Dimensionless; an angle's measurement in radians is numerically equal to the length of a corresponding arc of a unit circle.
|
UNIT_KIND_SECOND |
Second ('s'); SI base unit of time.
|
UNIT_KIND_SIEMENS |
Siemens ('S'); SI derived unit of electric conductance. Equivalent to A2 x s3 x kg-1 x m-2 .
|
UNIT_KIND_SIEVERT |
Sievert ('Sv'); SI derived unit of equivalent radiation dose, effective dose, and committed dose. Equivalent to the UNIT_KIND_GRAY (m2 x m-2 ), but used to express the biological equivalent dose in human tissue.
|
UNIT_KIND_STERADIAN |
Steradian ('sr'); SI derived unit of solid angle. An angle's measurement in steradians is numerically equal to the area of the corresponding surface on a unit sphere. Like the radian, it is dimensionless, essentially because a solid angle is the ratio between the area subtended and the square of its distance from the vertex: both the numerator and denominator of this ratio have dimension length2 . It is useful, however, to distinguish between dimensionless quantities of different nature, so in practice the symbol "sr" is used to indicate a solid angle..
|
UNIT_KIND_TESLA |
Tesla ('T'); SI derived unit of magnetic field strength or magnetic flux density. Equivalent to kg x A-1 x s-2 .
|
UNIT_KIND_VOLT |
Volt ('V'); SI derived unit of electric potential. Equivalent to kg x m2 x A-1 x s-3 .
|
UNIT_KIND_WATT |
Watt ('W'); SI derived unit of power. Equivalent to kg x m2 x s-3 .
|
UNIT_KIND_WEBER |
Weber ('Wb'); SI derived unit of magnetic flux. Equivalent to kg x m2 x A-1 x s-2 .
|
UNIT_KIND_INVALID |
An invalid unit. Used by libsbml when the 'unit' attribute of an element does not contain any allowed value.
