Decistere
Decistere (ds) is a unit of volume measurement equal to one-tenth of a litre, used primarily in some European countries for measuring liquids.
History/Origin
The decistere originated in the metric system as a subunit of the litre, introduced to facilitate smaller volume measurements. Its usage has declined with the standardization of the litre and millilitre units.
Current Use
Today, the decistere is rarely used in everyday measurements but may still appear in historical contexts or specific regional applications within certain European countries.
Hundred-Cubic Foot
A hundred-cubic foot is a unit of volume equal to 100 cubic feet, commonly used in measuring large quantities of gases or liquids.
History/Origin
The hundred-cubic foot has historically been used in industries such as natural gas and HVAC to quantify large volumes, especially in the United States, as a convenient measure for gas quantities.
Current Use
Today, the hundred-cubic foot is primarily used in the natural gas industry to measure gas volumes, though it is less common with the adoption of standard SI units like cubic meters.
