The specific energy I am getting is around 11 digit number can anyone tell the unit for the specific energy in this case. I am using Tonn.mm.sec system for an Impact analysis.

    For T.mm.s, energy is in mJ, there is a guide in help for summary of units

    Dear Paul

    Thanks for info.

    Specific energy is too high than the total energy.

    Total energy is around 4000 J and specific energy is around 28000 KJ.

    Is there any possibilities like this?

    What is the output request generating this plot? I think this might be specific energy density? i.e. the energy is divided by the element mass (v small value if you have tonnes as mass unit), so the values can be very high at element level and still compatible with a total model energy of 4000J?
