Convert Cubic inches per pound to Litres per kilogram
Convert Cubic inches per pound (in³/lb) to Litres per kilogram (L/kg) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
L/kg = in³/lb × 0.036127292
About Cubic inches per pound
The cubic inch per pound (in³/lb) equals 1.6387064 × 10⁻⁵ / 0.45359237 ≈ 3.6127 × 10⁻⁵ m³/kg. US aerospace propellant tables and legacy NACA compressible-flow charts list gas specific volumes in in³/lb; pre-metric Mollier charts for steam plotted enthalpy vs. in³/lb. 1 in³/lb ≈3.6127 × 10⁻⁵ m³/kg ≈0.03613 cm³/g.
About Litres per kilogram
The litre per kilogram (L/kg) equals 10⁻³ m³/kg, coincidentally equal to cm³/g. Process engineers prefer L/kg when working with liquids: specific volume of liquid oxygen at −183°C = 0.876 L/kg; liquid hydrogen = 14.1 L/kg. HVAC refrigerant datasheets and cryogenic transfer calculations typically give specific volume in L/kg. 1 L/kg = 10⁻³ m³/kg = 1 cm³/g.
