About International table calorie per cubic centimetre

The international table calorie per cubic centimetre (cal(IT)/cm³) equals exactly 4.1868 × 10⁶ J/m³ (1 cal(IT) = 4.1868 J; 1 cm³ = 10⁻⁶ m³). The IT variant of the cal/cm³ used in steam-table-based thermodynamics and older international standards. Numerically equal to kcal(IT)/L. 1 cal(IT)/cm³ = 4.1868 MJ/m³.

About Kilojoule per cubic metre

The kilojoule per cubic metre (kJ/m³) equals exactly 1000 J/m³. Common in gas industry and HVAC for expressing the volumetric heating value of fuel gases: natural gas ~35-38 MJ/m³, biogas ~20-25 MJ/m³, hydrogen ~10.8 MJ/m³ (standard conditions). 1 kJ/m³ = 1000 J/m³ = 1 Wh/(277.8 m³).
