When I try to calculate the mass of an assembly, the result is in units of LBF SEC^2 / IN. The separate parts all have no problem with mass calculations; they all come out in lbs. I'm looking for a mass in lbs.
Which leads me to another question: What are your thoughts on using Pro/Mechanica to study valve operation? I have barely touched Mechanica, and I'm looking for a way to analyze some parts before making prototypes. I'm designing a pressure/vacuum vent valve, and would like to have a way of running fluid flow analyses (checking cracking pressures, etc.) before paying for prototypes.
