Why is gasoline mass flow standardized at 15.5°C?

Standardizing at 15.5°C accounts for thermal expansion effects on gasoline density, ensuring consistent mass and volume comparisons across varying conditions.

Can I use this conversion for other fuels besides gasoline?

No, this conversion specifically applies to gasoline measured at the standardized temperature of 15.5°C and may not be accurate for other fuels.

What is an acre-foot per hour used for?

It measures volumetric flow rates, commonly for reporting reservoir releases, irrigation flows, and water diversion in hydrology and water management.

Utilizes standardized temperature reference to ensure consistent density-based mass calculations for gasoline.
Supports applications in water management, fuel transport, and vehicle testing sectors.
Browser-based and easy to use with instant conversion results.

Examples

2 Acre-foot/hour equals 30398.42 Kilogram/minute (Gasoline at 15.5°C).
0.5 Acre-foot/hour converts to 7599.61 Kilogram/minute (Gasoline at 15.5°C).

Common Use Cases

Reporting reservoir release and diversion rates in hydrology and water-resources management.
Custody transfer and invoicing of gasoline in terminals and pipelines with mass standardized at 15.5°C.
Calibration and verification of fuel flowmeters and tanker truck loading operations.
Vehicle engine and fuel consumption testing expressed at a standardized reference temperature.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure temperature conditions match the 15.5°C reference for accurate gasoline mass flow measurements.
Use this conversion tool within the context of standardized density corrections to maintain consistency.
Apply the conversion specifically for scenarios involving gasoline flow rather than other fuels or liquids.
Verify input values carefully to prevent errors in mass flow reporting or billing.

Limitations

The conversion relies on gasoline density at the standardized temperature of 15.5°C; deviations affect accuracy.
Acre-foot/hour is inherently a volumetric measure of water, so conversion to gasoline mass requires density correction.
This tool is specific to standardized conditions and may not apply accurately to other fluids or temperatures.
