fields.buffers.base.BufferBase.to_value

BufferBase.to_value(units, equivalence=None, **kwargs)

Return a NumPy array of values converted to the specified physical units.

This is equivalent to calling .in_units(…, as_array=True).value. It strips unit information and returns a plain NumPy array for interoperability.

Parameters:

• units (str or unyt.Unit) – Target units for conversion.

• equivalence (str, optional) – Equivalence name (e.g., “mass_energy”).

• **kwargs – Additional arguments passed to unyt.to.

Returns:

Data in the specified units, stripped of unit tags.

Return type:

numpy.ndarray
