Handling of units

  About units handling in fluids.sh:
   The default units for out and input properties are defined right at the
   beginning (line 56 to 62) of the fluids.sh script.
   To define differing units one can use the '-u' option.

  Option Usage: -u '%t %p %d %e %v %m %g'
    %t Temperatur: 1=Kelvin, 2=Celsius, 3=Fahrenheit, 4=Rankine
    %p Pressure: 1=MPa, 2=bar, 3=atm, 4=torr, 5=psia
    %d Density: 1=mol/l, 2=mol/m3, 3=g/ml, 4=kg/m3, 5=lb-mole/ft3, 6=lbm/ft3
    %e Energy: 1=kJ/mol, 2=kJ/kg, 3=kcal/mol, 4=Btu/lb-mole, 5=kcal/g, 6=Btu/lbm
    %v Velocity: 1=m/s, 2=ft/s, 3=mph
    %m Viscosity: 1=uPa*s, 2=Pa*s, 3=cP, 4=lbm/ft*s
    %g Surface tension: 1=N/m, 2=dyn/cm, 3=lb/ft, 4=lb/in

 Default units:
   -Temperatur     : K
   -Pressure       : bar
   -Density        : g/ml
   -Energy         : kJ/mol
   -Velocity       : m/s
   -Viscosity      : Pa*s
   -Surface tension: N/m

 SI units:
   -Temperatur     : K
   -Pressure       : MPa
   -Density        : kg/m3
   -Energy         : kJ/kg
   -Velocity       : m/s
   -Viscosity      : Pa*s
   -Surface tension: N/m
