System of Units
In ANSYS, you must make sure that you use a consistent system of units for all the data you enter. You can use any consistent
system of units. For electromagnetic field analysis, see the EMUNIT command in the Command Reference for additional
information regarding appropriate settings for free-space permeability and permittivity.
For micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), it is best to set up problems in more convenient units since components may only
be a few microns in size. For convenience, the following tables list the conversion factors from standard MKS units to MKSV and
MSVfA units.
