​
Import

import { VolumeUnitConverter, VOLUME_UNIT } from 'univerto/volume'

​
Available Units

The VOLUME_UNIT constant provides the following units: Metric Units:
  • CUBIC_MILLIMETER - Cubic millimeter
  • CUBIC_CENTIMETER - Cubic centimeter
  • CUBIC_METER - Cubic meter
  • CUBIC_KILOMETER - Cubic kilometer
  • MILLILITER - Milliliter
  • LITER - Liter
  • KILOLITER - Kiloliter
  • MEGALITER - Megaliter
  • GIGALITER - Gigaliter
Imperial/US Units:
  • CUBIC_INCH - Cubic inch
  • CUBIC_FOOT - Cubic foot
  • CUBIC_YARD - Cubic yard
  • TEASPOON - Teaspoon
  • TABLESPOON - Tablespoon
  • FLUID_OUNCE - Fluid ounce
  • CUP - Cup
  • PINT - Pint
  • QUART - Quart
  • GALLON - Gallon

​
Usage

import { VolumeUnitConverter, VOLUME_UNIT } from 'univerto/volume'

// Convert 5 liters to gallons
const gallons = VolumeUnitConverter.from(5, VOLUME_UNIT.LITER)
  .to(VOLUME_UNIT.GALLON)
  .convert()

console.log(gallons) // 1.321...

Common Conversions

​
Cooking & Recipe Conversions

// Teaspoons to tablespoons
const tbsp = VolumeUnitConverter.from(6, VOLUME_UNIT.TEASPOON)
  .to(VOLUME_UNIT.TABLESPOON)
  .convert() // 2

// Cups to milliliters
const ml = VolumeUnitConverter.from(2, VOLUME_UNIT.CUP)
  .to(VOLUME_UNIT.MILLILITER)
  .convert() // 473.176

// Fluid ounces to milliliters
const milliliters = VolumeUnitConverter.from(8, VOLUME_UNIT.FLUID_OUNCE)
  .to(VOLUME_UNIT.MILLILITER)
  .convert() // 236.588

​
Liquid Measurements

// Liters to gallons (fuel)
const fuelGallons = VolumeUnitConverter.from(50, VOLUME_UNIT.LITER)
  .to(VOLUME_UNIT.GALLON)
  .convert() // 13.209

// Gallons to liters
const fuelLiters = VolumeUnitConverter.from(10, VOLUME_UNIT.GALLON)
  .to(VOLUME_UNIT.LITER)
  .convert() // 37.854

// Pints to liters
const pintToLiter = VolumeUnitConverter.from(4, VOLUME_UNIT.PINT)
  .to(VOLUME_UNIT.LITER)
  .convert() // 1.893

​
Large Volume Measurements

// Cubic meters to cubic feet
const cubicFeet = VolumeUnitConverter.from(100, VOLUME_UNIT.CUBIC_METER)
  .to(VOLUME_UNIT.CUBIC_FOOT)
  .convert() // 3531.467

// Kiloliters to gallons (tank capacity)
const tankGallons = VolumeUnitConverter.from(5, VOLUME_UNIT.KILOLITER)
  .to(VOLUME_UNIT.GALLON)
