hydrogeo.p-units: Conversion of units.

In abarbour/hydrogeo: Tools for hydrogeology and poroelasticity

Description

Convert within commonly found units.

Usage

to_msquared(Perm_Darcy)

to_darcies(Perm_sqm, milli = FALSE)

to_millidarcies(Perm_sqm)

to_cmsquared(Perm_sqm)

bbl2cm(bbl)

ft2m(ft)

m2ft(m)

hpa2pa(hpa)

pa2hpa(pa)

kpa2pa(kpa)

pa2kpa(pa)

bar2pa(bar)

pa2bar(pa)

atm2bar(atm)

Arguments

Perm_Darcy	numeric; permeability, in darcies
Perm_sqm	numeric; permeability, in [m^2]
milli	logical; should the result be divided by 1000?
bbl	numeric; US oil barrels (1 bbl ~ 42 gallons US liquid)
ft	numeric; length in feet
m	numeric; length in meters
hpa	numeric; pressure in hecto-Pascals
pa	numeric; pressure in Pascals
kpa	numeric; pressure in kilo-Pascals
bar	numeric; pressure in bars
atm	numeric; pressure, in standard atmospheres

Details

There is a panoply of units in hydrogeology literature, so this represents a very small fraction of possibilities. There are generally three sets of conversion tools here:

• length convert meters to feet, etc

• permeability convert from darcies to SI, etc; these will begin with to_. For example, to_msquared converts darcies to m^2.

• pressure convert from pascal to bars, etc
