Frequently Asked Questions

Can I enter volume in Liters and pressure in bar or psi?+

Yes. Use the inline unit selectors on P (Pa, kPa, bar, psi, atm) and V (m³, L, cm³) and the engine handles all SI conversions automatically.

Why must temperature T be entered in Kelvin?+

Ideal gas pressure is proportional to average molecular kinetic energy, which vanishes only at absolute zero (0 K = -273.15 °C).

When do real gases deviate from PV = nRT?+

At cryogenic temperatures or high pressures (>50 bar), intermolecular attraction and finite molecular volume require the Van der Waals equation.
