About Thermochemical kilocalorie per cubic metre

The thermochemical kilocalorie per cubic metre (kcal(th)/m³) equals exactly 4184 J/m³ (1 kcal(th) = 4184 J). Used in older continental European and Russian engineering references for volumetric heating values of gases and process heat. 1 kcal(th)/m³ = 4184 J/m³ ≈ 1.162 Wh/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).
