ENTHALPY

Btu per lb of dry air x 2.3258 = kJ/kg of dry air
kJ/kg of dry air x 0.42996 = Btu per lb of dry air

FORCE

Existing Unit
Pound force (lbf)
Gram force (gf)
Kilogram force (kgf)
Newton (N)
EXAMPLE:
15 lbf x 4.448 = 66.72 ne wtons

TORQUE

Existing Unit
Kilogram Force Meter (kgf-m)
Ounce Force Inch (Ozf-in.) a
Pound Force Foot (lbf-ft) a
Pound Force Inch (lbf-in.) a
Newton Meter (Nm)
a Torque is a turning effort caused by a force acting normal to a radius at a set distance from the axis of rotation. The I-P unit
of torque is pound-foot (lbf-ft) or ounce-inch (Ozf-in.). One lbf-ft is equal to one pound acting at one foot from the axis of
rotation. See WORK/ENERGY for foot-pound.
EXAMPLE:
25 lbf-in. x 0.1130 = 2.83 ne wton meter

DENSITY

Existing Unit
Pounds per cubic foot (lb/ft
Pounds per gallon (lb/gal)
Grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm
Kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m
EXAMPLE:
8 pounds per cubic foot x 16.0185 = 128.15 kilograms per cubic meter
