Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (joule per cubic meter (J/m³)) without arbitrary rounding:

V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)

Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)

1. Source SI Bridge (k_source):1 J/m³ = 1 joule per cubic meter (J/m³)

2. Target SI Bridge (k_target):1 therm/ft³ = 3.725895 × 10⁹ joule per cubic meter (J/m³)

Step-by-step substitution for Joule/cubic meter → Therm/cubic foot:V(therm/ft³) = V(J/m³) × ( 1 / 3.725895 × 10⁹ ) = V(J/m³) × 2.683919 × 10⁻¹⁰
