Convert liters to viss using the density of water, cooking oil or your own material, or convert viss to liters, kg or lb at 1 viss = 1.63293 kg.

Liters measure volume and viss measures weight, so the answer depends on density. Typical values; choose Custom for your own.

Liter to Viss Conversion Formula

Because viss is a unit of mass, converting liters to viss depends on the material density. Using the conventional rounded factor 1 viss โ‰ˆ 1.63293 kg, the following formula converts volume (L) to mass in viss:

V = (L ร— ฯ) / (1.63293)

Variables:

  • V is the mass in viss
  • L is the volume in liters
  • ฯ is the density in kg/L

For water (ฯ โ‰ˆ 1.00 kg/L), this simplifies to: V โ‰ˆ L / 1.63293 โ‰ˆ L ร— 0.6124.

What is Viss?

Viss is a traditional unit of weight (mass) used in Myanmar (Burma). It is commonly used in local markets for commodities such as produce and other goods. One viss is commonly equated with 3.6 pounds; this calculator uses the conventional rounded conversion of 1.63293 kilograms per viss. A โ€œliters per vissโ€ equivalent depends on the materialโ€™s density; for water at ฯ โ‰ˆ 1.00 kg/L, 1 viss corresponds to about 1.63293 liters.

How to Calculate Liter to Viss?

The following steps outline how to convert liters to viss.

  1. First, determine the volume in liters (L) that you want to convert.
  2. Next, determine the density (ฯ) of the material in kg/L (for water, use approximately 1.00 kg/L).
  3. Calculate the mass in viss using: V = (L ร— ฯ) / 1.63293.
  4. After inserting the values and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem :

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

Volume in liters (L) = 5 liters

Density (ฯ) = 1.00 kg/L (water)

The weight in viss (V) is calculated as:

V = (5 ร— 1.00) / 1.63293 โ‰ˆ 3.062 viss
