Unit Explanations
Cubic Meter Kilogramm³/kg
Source UnitThe cubic meter kilogram is a derived unit of specific volume, defined as the volume occupied by one kilogram of a substance. It is derived from the cubic meter, a unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI), and the kilogram, the base unit of mass. Specific volume expresses how much space a unit mass of a material occupies, which is crucial in various scientific and engineering applications. This unit is particularly relevant in fields such as thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and material science, where understanding the relationship between mass and volume is essential for calculations and design.
Current Use
Cubic meter kilograms are widely used in engineering, physics, and environmental sciences to describe the specific volume of materials, especially gases and liquids. In industries such as HVAC, chemical engineering, and hydrology, this unit helps in designing equipment and understanding fluid dynamics. Specific volume is critical for calculating buoyancy, flow rates, and thermal properties, making it an essential parameter in many scientific and industrial applications.
Fun Fact
The specific volume of gases varies significantly with pressure and temperature, unlike liquids and solids which are generally incompressible.
Joule Gram 176 CelsiusJ·g·176°C
Target UnitThe Joule Gram at 176 degrees Celsius is a specific unit that combines the joule, a unit of energy, with gram as a unit of mass at a specified temperature of 176 degrees Celsius. It represents the amount of energy in joules that is associated with one gram of a substance when subjected to conditions defined by the temperature of 176°C. This unit is particularly relevant in thermodynamic applications, where the energy content of materials at specific temperatures is critical for calculations involving heat transfer, phase changes, and chemical reactions.
Current Use
The Joule Gram 176 Celsius is primarily used in fields such as physical chemistry and materials science, where precise energy measurements at specific temperatures are crucial. It helps researchers understand energy changes during reactions and phase transitions. This unit is essential in laboratories and industrial applications where temperature control and energy transfer are significant.
Fun Fact
The joule is defined as the energy transferred when a force of one newton is applied over a distance of one meter.

Cubic Meter Kilogram
specific • Non-SI
Definition
The cubic meter kilogram is a derived unit of specific volume, defined as the volume occupied by one kilogram of a substance. It is derived from the cubic meter, a unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI), and the kilogram, the base unit of mass. Specific volume expresses how much space a unit mass of a material occupies, which is crucial in various scientific and engineering applications. This unit is particularly relevant in fields such as thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and material science, where understanding the relationship between mass and volume is essential for calculations and design.
History & Origin
The cubic meter as a unit of volume originated from the metric system established in France during the late 18th century, while the kilogram was defined in 1795. The combination of these two units into cubic meter kilograms provides a practical means to quantify specific volume, often used in engineering and scientific contexts. This derived unit reflects the relationship between mass and volume essential to many physical principles, especially in understanding how substances behave under different conditions.
Etymology: The term 'cubic meter' derives from the Latin 'cubus' meaning cube, and 'meter' from Greek 'metron', meaning measure. 'Kilogram' combines 'kilo' (thousand) and 'gram', which is derived from the Greek 'gramma', meaning small weight.
Current Use
Cubic meter kilograms are widely used in engineering, physics, and environmental sciences to describe the specific volume of materials, especially gases and liquids. In industries such as HVAC, chemical engineering, and hydrology, this unit helps in designing equipment and understanding fluid dynamics. Specific volume is critical for calculating buoyancy, flow rates, and thermal properties, making it an essential parameter in many scientific and industrial applications.
💡 Fun Facts
