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 UK gallons per pound
The UK gallon per pound (gal (UK)/lb) equals 0.00454609 / 0.45359237 ≈0.010022 m³/kg, historically used in British chemical and petroleum engineering. Specific volume of hydrocarbon solvents and lubricating oils appeared in gal (UK)/lb in pre-metric British Standards. 1 gal (UK)/lb = 8.327 L/kg ≈0.010022 m³/kg.
