Common Use Cases
-
Serving beverage volume measurement such as beer in pint units
-
Measuring milk or cream quantities in US culinary recipes
-
Natural gas utility billing and meter report conversions per 100 cubic feet
-
Engineering tasks involving gas flow and pipeline volume calculations
-

Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure you are converting liquid volumes to gas volumes with awareness of physical state differences
-
Use this tool for volume conversions only; consider gas compressibility and conditions separately
-
Double-check unit selections to maintain accuracy in engineering and billing contexts
-
Utilize the tool for quick estimates before detailed engineering analysis
Limitations
-
The pint (US) measures liquid volume, while hundred-cubic foot measures gas volume, so density and temperature may affect actual equivalences
-
Conversion is based on volume alone and does not reflect physical changes due to gas compressibility or state
-
This tool does not perform calculations involving mass or pressure changes
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is a pint (US) used for?
-
A pint (US) is a customary liquid volume unit commonly used for beverages, culinary measurements, and retail packaging of liquids.
-
Why use hundred-cubic foot as a unit?
-
Hundred-cubic foot is typically used to measure large volumes of gases such as natural gas in utility billing and engineering applications.
-
Does this conversion account for gas density or temperature?
-
No, the conversion only translates volume units and does not consider physical state changes like density and temperature variations.
Key Terminology
-
Pint (US) [pt (US)]
-
A customary US liquid volume equal to 1/8 of a US gallon or exactly 473.176473 milliliters, used commonly for beverages and culinary measures.
-
Hundred-cubic foot
-
A unit of volume equaling 100 cubic feet, widely used to express large gas volumes such as natural gas in engineering and utility billing contexts.
