Normal Temperature and Pressure (NTP) is 0°C and 101.325 kN/m². Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) used for determination of fan capacities is 20°C and 101.6 kN/m² or 60°F and 30 in Hg. (These two sets of conditions do no convert directly, but the density of dry air is 1.22 kg/m³ = 0.0764 lb/ft³ at both conditions.)
