Verify Using Hand calculation for H field

I am new to flux environment and I have been modelling simple EM use cases. One such use case is H field calculation for a single conductor carrying current in air medium.

I drew and plotted the magnetic field magnitude (A/m) using the sensor functionality. I am however finding it hard to compare the result with hand calculations. The expression for H is Current/(2Xpi X distance). The simulation result does not seem to match with the hand calculation. I see the result is off by the order of 10^6. I suspect, I may be reading the units erroneously. Please lend any help in understanding the output units of flux simulations.

    Hi,
    Can you check the different conditions that you use in your project (boundary condition)
    The second point, the unite that you use to compute the magnetic field analytically ?
    Can you share your  Flux project ?

    Best regards.

    Best regards.
