Convert Litres per kilogram to Cubic metres per tonne
Convert Litres per kilogram (L/kg) to Cubic metres per tonne (m³/t) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
m³/t = L/kg × 1
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.
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.
