In thermodynamics, the Volume Correction Factor (VCF), also known as Correction for the effect of Temperature on Liquid (CTL), is a standardized computed factor used to correct for the thermal expansion of fluids, primarily, liquid hydrocarbons at various temperatures and densities. [1]

Traditionally, CTL/VCF values are found in books/tables provided by the American Petroleum Institute, matching the temperature and density to find the CTL/VCF values. Such methods are often time-consuming and tedious. The calculator below omits the tables and computes the required values for you.

Sep 23, 2018 · ASTM tables give the Volume correction factors (VCF) to find the volumes at temperature for which the density is given. Let us say cargo surveyor provided the density at 15 deg C as 0.816 and ASTM table 54B to be used.

The printed tables are published jointly by the ASTM and the IP, and are commonly referred to as the 1952 Tables, or “Blue Book Tables.” Tables are based primarily on the volumetric data for crudes and fractions developed and published in 1916. Most of the samples used are primarily from US domestic production in the 1916 data. In 1965, API ...
