Unknown. This template uses community nodes we can't verify statically. Uses community nodes that can't be verified statically (unverified community packages are off by default in 3.0). Static check, last run 2026-10-19.

What this workflow does

This workflow has 8 nodes and runs manually, when you click “Execute workflow”. Along the way it connects Calcslive (community).

How it runs

Trigger: Manually, when you click “Execute workflow”.

  1. Set Inputs for Speed (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 4 fields: distance, unit, time…
  2. Set Inputs for Cylinder (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 4 fields: Diameter, DiaUnit, Height…
  3. Set Density Input (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 2 fields: Density, DensityUnit
  4. Speed Calc (d,t) → v (Calcs Live): uses Calcs Live
  5. Cylinder Volume (D,h) → V (Calcs Live): uses Calcs Live
  6. Merge: merges the data from its input branches
  7. Mass Calc (V,ρ) → m (Calcs Live): uses Calcs Live

Services it uses

Calcslive (community)

Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0

We can't fully verify this one: it relies on 1 community package, and n8n 3.0 turns unverified community packages off by default (N8N_UNVERIFIED_PACKAGES_ENABLED=false).

  • Check that @calcslive/n8n-nodes-calcslive is verified or supports 3.0 (used in Speed Calc (d,t) → v, Cylinder Volume (D,h) → V, Mass Calc (V,ρ) → m).

From the author

What this workflow does This template demonstrates how to perform unit-aware calculations with automatic unit conversion using the CalcsLive community node. It shows three calculation patterns: 1. Speed calculation: Convert distance and time into velocity (km…
