Facts about Cubic Foot
Basic facts: A cubic foot [symbol is: ft3 or cu ft] is a unit of volume in the United States customary, i.e.: non-metric, and imperial systems of measurement represented as the cube volume with side measurements of 1 ft × 1 ft × 1 ft. It equals 1,728 cubic centimeters, around 0.028317 cubic meters, and 28.317 liters. In other words, it is the amount of liquid that can be fit into a box 1 foot deep, 1 foot wide, and 1 foot in length. A cubic foot of water weighs 62.37 pounds (28.29 kg) at 60 °F (16 °C).
History: The cubic foot descended from the foot, the definition of which is based on the international yard which was adopted in the 1950s and 1960s as precisely equal to 0.9144 m.
Use: The cubic foot is used in the United Kingdom, in the United States, and in some parts of Canada, however, in all of these countries, the SI (International System of Units) units of volume such as liter, milliliter, and cubic meter, are also used.
A cubic foot per second or cubic meter per second [the IEEE symbol for the cubic foot per second is ft3/s.] commonly expresses the flow or discharge of rivers, i.e., the volume of water passing a location per unit of time.
A cubic foot per minute [the IEEE symbol for the cubic foot per minute is ft3/min] is used to measure the amount of air that is being delivered and is a common metric utilized for carburetors, air-compressor systems, and pneumatic tools.
A standard cubic foot [abbreviated scf] is a measure of the quantity of gas, sometimes defined in terms of standard temperature and pressure as a cubic foot of volume at 60 degrees Fahrenheit (15.56 °C; 288.71 K).
Facts about Liter
Basic facts: Liter (also spelled litre in British English) is a unit of volume with two official symbols in Latin: L and l. A liter is not part of the International System of Units (SI), however, CGPM (the standards body which defines SI) accepts liter for use within SI. The SI units of volume are cubic decimeters (dm3), cubic centimeters (cm3), and cubic meters (m3). 1 liter equals = 1dm3 = 1000cm3 = 0.001m3
History: Liter was first introduced in 1795 in France as a new “republican unit of measurement” that equaled one cubic decimeter. Liter (or litre) was named after litron, an old pre-revolutionary Carolingian measurement unit. 1 liter of water (liquid state) almost exactly equals 1 kilogram because in 1795 gram was defined 1 cubic centimeter of water at the melting ice temperature point. 3rd CGPM conference of 1901, a liter was defined as the space occupied by one kilogram of water at 3.98 °C (temperature of its maximum density) under 1-atmosphere pressure. In 1964 CGPM reverted to the previous and now current definition where 1 liter equals 1 decimeter (dm3).
Use: Liters are used to measure fluids (and occasionally solids that can be poured) by the size and capacity of their containers. The majority of fluid consumer commodities are measured in liters such as water, cooking oil, detergents, etc.
