Reference
How volume conversion works
Volume measures three-dimensional capacity. US customary and Imperial liquid units have different sizes, so the unit system is always shown explicitly.
Values are converted to cubic meter first, then from that reference into the requested unit. Keeping a single documented reference reduces inconsistent pair-by-pair constants.

Questions
Volume FAQ
What is the reference unit for volume conversions?
ConvertWin uses cubic meter (m³) as the internal reference for this category, then converts to the selected output unit.
How accurate is this volume converter?
US liquid and Imperial gallon definitions are treated separately and use their exact legal values.
