Pipe/Tank Insulation in metric
For both Pipe & Tank Insultation
When calculators are in metric
Utility Cost is still in $/MMBTU on label.
Results are in MMBtu.
1 - labels are wrong, Should be $/GJ and GJ to match TH 2 - I think unit conversion is in MJ for "Heated" and should be GJ to match TH (I think I found the unit conversion and it looks like it is doing MMBTU for imperial, heated, MJ for metric, heated, and kWh for both, chilled, but it is confusing).
3 - the results doesn't quite match what I'm getting in MJ. this could be few things, but need to review unit conversions.
Just do a quick double check that things match what the suite is expecting/providing
Data in imperial (correct results)
Data in metric (except $/MMBTU, that value is in $/MMBTU)
Correct value in metric: 1168 MMBTU is 1,232,310 MJ = 1,232.31 GJ. This is close (returning 1,278,232 "something probably MJ"), but not quite. It could be me converting from the user's metric to imperial + the dropdown for wall thickness not being perfect, but please check unit conversions to be sure.

@koay9f this is the type of issue that would be great to have Michael take a look at once he is familiar with the project. It's important to resolve - not necessarily complex but involves a lot of cross-checking and knowing where to look. If it can wait till he's at that point I'll assign it to him
Hard to compare examples between imperial/metric since they are different examples, but...
Obvious issues fixed:
- removed utility cost mistakenly being divided by 1000 (?) - calculation was:
energyCost = results.annualHeatLoss * input.utilityCost / 1000 - Fixed labels not detecting metric units
- Fixed (changed to GJ) results converting from watt/hour to MJ
- Removed call to modification energy source type no longer used
If issues still remain, let's discuss over a call
