We are modelling entropy and enthalpy in a scientific software project. Scientific papers we use, refer to molar based measurements such as Joule per Mole and Joule per Mole per Kelvin.

We couldn't find a good way to implement this using the library as-is. So we are willing to implement and contribute to the library but we thought it would be better if we discuss first.

Perhaps we can introduce a quantity type called MolarEnergy for it. What are your thoughts?

It seems to me like the best approach would be to add the quantities corresponding to J/mole and J/mole/K and operator overloads so that you can create them from the appropriate other quantities (such as Amount of substance, Energy and Temperature).

See this page for a description on how to add new quantities.

We started to work on a quantity called MolarEnergy having a unit Joule per Mole.
