Specific Gravity

The Specific Gravity - SG - is a dimensionless unit defined as the ratio of density of the material to the density of water at a specified temperature. Specific Gravity can be expressed as

SG = ρ / ρH2O (3)

where

SG = specific gravity

ρ = density of fluid or substance (kg/m3)

ρH2O = density of water (kg/m3)
