1. What is Density of SS304?

Definition: Density is the mass per unit volume of a material. For stainless steel 304 (SS304), the typical density is about 7930 kg/m³.

Purpose: This calculator helps determine the density of SS304 material based on measured mass and volume.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

\[ \rho = \frac{m}{V} \]

Where:

\( \rho \) — Density (kg/m³)
\( m \) — Mass (kg)
\( V \) — Volume (m³)

Explanation: The mass is divided by volume to calculate density. For pure SS304, the result should be close to 7930 kg/m³.

3. Importance of Density Calculation

Details: Knowing material density is crucial for engineering calculations, material selection, quality control, and structural design.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the mass in kilograms and volume in cubic meters. All values must be > 0. The default SS304 density is shown when no calculation is performed.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the standard density of SS304?
A: The standard density of stainless steel 304 is approximately 7930 kg/m³ at room temperature.

Q2: Does temperature affect SS304 density?
A: Yes, density decreases slightly with increasing temperature due to thermal expansion.

Q3: How precise is this calculation?
A: The precision depends on your mass and volume measurements. For pure SS304, results should be within 1% of 7930 kg/m³.

Q4: What if my calculated density differs significantly?
A: Significant differences may indicate measurement errors, material impurities, or that the material isn't pure SS304.

Q5: Can I use other units?
A: This calculator uses kg and m³. For other units, convert to these standard units first.
