Examples

2 yd^3/h converts to 27132.37 kg/day (Gasoline at 15.5°C)
0.5 yd^3/h converts to 6783.09 kg/day (Gasoline at 15.5°C)

Common Use Cases

Specifying pump discharge rates for handling gasoline flows in pipelines or tankers
Reconciling fuel inventory and throughput at depots and refineries
Calculating fuel consumption and emissions with temperature-corrected mass flow
Supporting custody transfer and invoicing based on mass for gasoline deliveries

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure flow values are accurately measured in cubic yards per hour before conversion
Use the conversion when gasoline density is referenced to 15.5°C for consistency
Consider environmental and operational temperature effects when interpreting results
Verify units to maintain standardization across custody and inventory reports

Limitations

Conversion assumes gasoline density at exactly 15.5°C and may vary with temperature changes
Fuel composition differences can affect mass flow accuracy after conversion
Conversion is only valid for volumetric rates expressed in cubic yards per hour
Mass flow results depend on consistent temperature and density standards
