Q. How do I set the units of Pressure to "inches of Water" in CFX POST?

A. It turns out that "inches of Water" is a built in unit system in POST - unfortunately, it does not show up in the drop down menus in POST. Here are the instructions on how set the pressure units in POST to "inches of Water".

1 - Open POST and go to Edit>Options
2 - In the Pop-Up menu, select the "Units" option in the tree structure.
3 - Set the unit system to "Custom"
4 - You should see the Pressure units set in the "Quantity Types" list. (Usually pressure will be set to Pa)
5 - Click "in" the white space next to "Pressure". Do NOT use the drop down list.
6 - Clear the existing unit system (use back space)
7 - Type in "in Wg". NOTE the space and the case. It should match as given. See attached picture.
8 - Click 'OK' on the options form.

All legends should automatically update to show the current unit system.
