Unit Conversion

Universal Unit Converter with Engineering Focus: A MATLAB unit conversion toolbox that supports engineering, physics, and everyday units.

Universal Unit Converter (Engineering Edition)

🔹 What it is

A MATLAB unit conversion toolbox that supports engineering, physics, and everyday units.

It understands SI, Imperial, prefixes, compound units, and even temperatures (absolute and deltas).

🔹 Why use it

• Covers all major engineering domains: mechanics, thermodynamics, electricity, materials
• Works with compound expressions (N*m, kg/m^3, J/C, 1/s, etc.)
• Handles aliases and shorthand:
• mile = mi
• lb = lbf
• sec = s
• meter = m

🔹 Quick Examples

uconvert(10,'cm','m') % 0.1

uconvert(

1,'mile','ft')

uconvert(

1,'N*m','lbf*ft')

uconvert(

60,'mile/hr','m/s')

uconvert(

25,'degC','K')

uconvert(

68,'degF','degC')

uconvert(

10,'degF_delta','K')

🔹 Included

• uconvert.m — the engine
• demo_uconvert.m — ready-to-run showcase

🔹 Demo Output

10 cm in meters = 0.100 m

1 mile in feet = 5280.000 ft

1 N*m in lbf*ft = 0.738 lbf*ft

101325 Pa in psi = 14.696 psi

1 hp in Watts = 745.700 W

1 kWh in BTU = 3412.142 BTU

60 mile/hr in m/s = 26.822 m/s

1 g/cm^3 in kg/m^3 = 1000.0 kg/m^3

25 degC in K = 298.15 K

68 degF in degC = 20.00 degC

10 degF_delta in K = 5.56 K
