Remove Unit System

Define a unit system, use the unit system to rewrite units, and then remove the unit system by using removeUnitSystem.

Define the unit system mySystem with SI base units and the derived unit kilowatt hour.

u = symunit;
bunits = baseUnits('SI');
dunits = [u.kWh];
mySystem = newUnitSystem('mySystem',bunits,dunits)

mySystem = 
    "mySystem"

Convert 50,000 Joules to derived units of mySystem by using rewrite with the third argument 'Derived'. As expected, the result is in kilowatt hour.
