Conversion Factors

  • Temperature: T (°F) = (T (°C)) × (9/5) + 32
  • Specific Volume: 1 ft³/lbm = 1728 in³/lbm = 7.48 U.S. gal/lbm = 62.43 liter/kg = 0.062 m³/kg
  • Density: 1 lb/ft³ = 16.018 kg/m³ = 0.016 g/cm³

Operating Conditions

  • Pressure: 29.96 inches Mercury (760 mm Mercury, 14.696 psia, 1.0333 kg/cm², 101.33 kPa)
