Definition

The air buoyancy factor can be used when performing quantity conversion calculations between a volume and a mass.

The value of the air buoyancy factor can be defined in the material master and is used in the oil quantity conversion calculation if the air buoyancy factor indicator is set for a transaction.

The air buoyancy factor is a correction made to the calculated base density to account for the difference between the density in a vacuum and the density in air. The air buoyancy factor is subtracted from the base density before the density is multiplied by the volume to calculate the mass.
