  2. Stowage factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stowage_factor

    In shipping, the stowage factor indicates how many cubic metres of space one tonne (or cubic feet of space one long ton) of a particular type of cargo occupies in a hold of a cargo ship. [1] It is calculated as the ratio of the stowage space required under normal conditions, including the stowage losses caused by the means of transportation and ...

  3. Pelican Lake (Manitoba) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelican_Lake_(Manitoba)

    The maximum rate of diversion into the lake is approximately 9 cubic metres per second (320 cubic feet per second). Diversions into the lake are not allowed when flow in the Pembina River is less than 0.4 cms (15 cubic feet per second), and diversions are not started in the spring until Lorne and Louise lakes have filled to an elevation of 1338 ...

  4. Volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume

    When applying prefixes to units of volume, which are expressed in units of length cubed, the cube operators are applied to the unit of length including the prefix. An example of converting cubic centimetre to cubic metre is: 2.3 cm 3 = 2.3 (cm) 3 = 2.3 (0.01 m) 3 = 0.0000023 m 3 (five zeros). [18]: 143

  5. Litre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Litre

    Some SI units of volume to scale and approximate corresponding mass of water. A litre is a cubic decimetre, which is the volume of a cube 10 centimetres × 10 centimetres × 10 centimetres (1 L ≡ 1 dm 3 ≡ 1000 cm 3). Hence 1 L ≡ 0.001 m 3 ≡ 1000 cm 3; and 1 m 3 (i.e. a cubic metre, which is the SI unit for volume) is exactly 1000 L.

  8. Ancient Roman units of measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Roman_units_of...

    The sextarius was defined as 1 ⁄ 48 of a cubic pes (Roman foot), known as an amphora quadrantal. Using the value 296 mm (11.7 in) for the Roman foot, an amphora quadrantal can be computed at approximately 25.9 L (5.7 imp gal; 6.8 US gal), so a sextarius (by the same method) would theoretically measure 540.3 ml (19.02 imp fl oz; 18.27 US fl oz ...

  9. Psychrometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychrometrics

    The SI units are cubic meters per kilogram of dry air; other units are cubic feet per pound of dry air. The inverse of specific volume is usually confused as the density of the mixture. [ 11 ] However, to obtain the actual mixture density ( ρ {\displaystyle \rho } ) one must multiply the inverse of the specific volume by unity plus the ...
