neutral  Cilian O'Tuama: you still need to multiply by 1000 for cubic cm //Obvious to the enlightened. :-)

  -> Thanks for stating the obvious. Alan was first and right - that'll do the job, right? // ;-)
agree  Johannes Gleim: 0,0269616 m3 = 26,9616 Liter (mit Umrechnungsfaktor 0,0164, 26,94516 Liter mit Umrechnungsfaktor 0,01639, 26,940 mit Umrechnungsfaktor 0,016387)

agree  Hans G. Liepert: bei einer trasgbaren Box sind das 26,9 Luiter, basta, die Umrechnungsfaktoren sind nur für Sesselfurzer gedacht.

neutral  Cilian O'Tuama: that'd be cubic metres, not cubic cm (decimal point (bzw. Komma) needs to be moved)// Looks like we both edited at same time :-)

Explanation:
= 1644 * 0,164 = 26,9616

0,164 ist der Umrechnungsfaktor, den ich in den Technischen Tabellen von Siemens gefunden habe

sorry, jetzt habe ich mich selbst verhauen. Es sind

= 1644 * 0,164 = 26,9616 dm3 = 26.961,6 cm3

--------------------------------------------------

Der Umrechnungsfaktor lautet 0,0164 laut Siemens
Rechnet man 25,4 cm/inch um (0,254 * 0,254 * 0,254), so kommt man auf den Faktor 0,016387 und damit auf 26,94 liter.
Im Tabellenbuch von Kusch steht noch ein anderer Faktor, und zwar 0,01639, was 26,945 Liter ergibt.
Fazit: Der von mir zuerst angegebene Faktor scheint am ungenauesten zu sein.

neutral  Cilian O'Tuama: warum nicht einfach dem Alan dein 'agree' geben?
4 hrs
  -> weil die Größenördung stimmt, es aber Abweichungen bei den Ziffern gibt (am besten sollte der Umrechnungsfaktor angegeben werden)
