      while calculating pitch damping using the formula, ma+M will be there. Pitch mass is the mass moment of inertia, pitch added mass is shown in kg m2/degree.

      It is because of setting the angle unit as [deg] in your Aqwa project.  When it is set as [rad], the unit of pitch added mass unit will be [kg.m^2/rad].
