About Cubic metres per kilogram

The cubic metre per kilogram (m³/kg) is the SI coherent derived unit of specific volume - the reciprocal of density. In steam and refrigerant thermodynamics, m³/kg appears in state tables: water at 100°C, 0.1 MPa has specific volume 1.674 m³/kg (vapour) and 1.044 × 10⁻³ m³/kg (liquid). The specific gas constant and molar volume calculations use m³/kg. 1 m³/kg = 1000 L/kg = 1000 cm³/g.

About Cubic metres per tonne

The cubic metre per tonne (m³/t) equals 10⁻³ m³/kg, coincidentally equal to L/kg and cm³/g, preferred in bulk-material handling, geotechnical engineering, and quarrying. Swell factor tables for excavated rock list specific volume in m³/t: solid granite ≈0.37 m³/t, blasted rock ≈0.45 m³/t. International shipping designates cargo stowage factors in m³/t. 1 m³/t = 10⁻³ m³/kg = 1 L/kg.
