About Cubic feet per pound
The cubic foot per pound (ft³/lb) equals 0.028316846592 / 0.45359237 ≈0.062428 m³/kg, standard in US power-plant and HVAC engineering. ASHRAE psychrometric charts express humid-air specific volume in ft³/lb; Spirax Sarco steam tables in US customary units list specific volume in ft³/lb. Sea-level atmospheric air ≈1.205 kg/m³ corresponds to ≈0.835 ft³/lb. 1 ft³/lb ≈0.062428 m³/kg ≈62.43 L/kg.
About Cubic metres per gram
The cubic metre per gram (m³/g) equals 1000 m³/kg, used for ultra-low-density media. Highly porous aerogels achieve apparent specific volumes of 0.5-10 m³/g; bulk activated-carbon specific volumes reach 1-3 m³/g per BET surface measurements. Atmospheric aerosol specific volume and trace-gas concentration calculations also employ m³/g. 1 m³/g = 1000 m³/kg = 10⁶ cm³/g.
