Density of Steam 2022

Definition

The density of steam is the weight of the steam per its volume.

Formula

ρ = m / V

• ρ:  Density
• m: mass
• V: Volume

Density vs Specific Weight vs Specific Gravity

I would like to point out that there are conceptual differences between density, specific weight and specific gravity. Follow the link if you want to learn more about these differences.

With that said, this page will provide you the steam density in kg/m³ (SI unit), g/cm³, g/ml, kg/l, lb/ft³.

Density of Steam (At 100 °C, 1 atm)

𝛒 = 0.000598 g/cm³

𝛒 = 0.598 kg/m³

𝛒 = 0.000598 g/ml
𝛒 = 0.598 g/L

𝛒 = 0.03733 lb/ft³
