About International table kilocalorie per cubic metre

The international table kilocalorie per cubic metre (kcal(IT)/m³) equals exactly 4186.8 J/m³ (1 kcal(IT) = 4186.8 J). The slightly larger IT variant of the kilocalorie used in steam tables and international thermodynamics. 1 kcal(IT)/m³ = 4186.8 J/m³ ≈ 1.163 Wh/m³.

About Joule per cubic metre

The joule per cubic metre (J/m³) is the SI coherent unit for energy density (and equivalently, pressure). It covers a wide range from gas combustion (natural gas ~38 MJ/m³) down to small reaction energies. Numerically equal to the pascal (Pa = N/m² = J/m³). Referenced in ISO 31-4. 1 J/m³ = 10⁻³ kJ/m³ = 1 Pa.
