Energy / Temperature "Units don't match" error

Dividing energy by temperature results in three different outputs, depending on how the units are divided: - "Units don't match" error
- Inconsistent/incorrect units displayed
- No problem or error
When using units as you normally would, the following results: A workaround for this is to simply add a coefficient to the temperature units as shown below: This workaround is NOT required when using absolute temperature units, nor when the units are stored separately in variables: However, specifying output units causes problems. When specifying units with relative temperature, again the "Units don't match" error appears: And when the output units are specified with an absolute temperature, the temperature units aren't properly reconciled, which produces odd behaviour, and a similarly poor outcome results from using the workaround above to specify the output units: I hope this provides enough detail to reproduce the issue accurately. Cheers.

There is no bug, a common mistake for new users. One should use Δ°C or Δ°F for that kind of calculations. We all know it is confusing, but it is what it is. Regards

I agree, that is confusing.
Thanks for the clarification and the workaround.
