Make quick, defensible conversions

Use the calculators below to translate between normal volumetric flow, mass flow, gravimetric energy content and dew point equivalents for hydrogen streams. Results assume normal conditions (0 °C, 1.013 bar) unless noted.

Flow and energy conversions

Switch between Nm³/h, kg/h and energy intensities using an industry standard density of 0.08988 kg per Nm³.

What this tool does

Provides fast unit conversions between hydrogen flow, mass, and energy bases so teams can reconcile assumptions across technical and commercial workstreams.

When to use it

Use it for screening calculations, spreadsheet checks, and quick communications clean-up. Do not use it as a substitute for a full thermodynamic property package when pressure, temperature, or purity effects matter.

Key assumptions

  • Conversions rely on a standard normal-density basis suitable for high-level engineering and commercial screening.
  • Actual density and energy content will shift with pressure, temperature, and composition.
  • Results are intended to keep teams on a consistent basis, not to replace detailed process simulation.
  • Default conversion factors should be checked against the project basis before external issue.

Hydrogen flow converter

Enter either normal volumetric flow or mass flow. The counterpart is calculated automatically.

Nm³/h
kg/h

Assumes dry hydrogen at 0 °C and 1.013 bar (0.08988 kg/Nm³).

Gravimetric & volumetric energy

Convert electrolyser or fuel cell figures between kWh per kg and kWh per Nm³.

kWh/kg
kWh/Nm³

Uses the same density assumption as the flow converter.
