Why is 15.5°C used as the reference temperature in this conversion?

15.5°C is used as a standard temperature in petroleum measurement to provide consistent mass–volume conversion and support custody transfer and inventory control.

Can I use this conversion for liquids other than gasoline?

No, this conversion is specific to gasoline because it depends on gasoline's density at 15.5°C, and may not be accurate for other liquids.

What should I do if the gasoline temperature differs from 15.5°C?

If the temperature varies, corrections should be applied to the flow rate or density to maintain accurate mass flow calculations.

What Is This Tool?

This tool converts volumetric flow rates in gallon (UK) per day into mass flow rates in kilogram per day, specifically for gasoline at a standard temperature of 15.5°C. It helps standardize measurements for petroleum and fuel distribution industries.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the volumetric flow value in gallon (UK)/day
Select gallon (UK)/day as the input unit
Select kilogram/day (Gasoline at 15.5°C) as the output unit
Initiate the conversion to view the equivalent gasoline mass flow rate

Key Features

Converts UK gallon per day flow rates to gasoline mass flow rates at 15.5°C
Supports petroleum industry standards for custody and inventory measurements
Allows consistent temperature-referenced mass–volume conversions
Browser-based and easy to use for quick unit conversions

Examples

Convert 5 gal (UK)/d to kg/day: 5 × 3.3610564306 = 16.8053 kg/day (Gasoline at 15.5°C)
Convert 0.1 gal (UK)/d: 0.1 × 3.3610564306 = 0.3361 kg/day (Gasoline at 15.5°C)

Common Use Cases

Calculating mass flow for gasoline deliveries by pipeline or tanker based on imperial volumetric flow
Performing inventory tracking and throughput reporting at fuel depots and refineries
Standardizing flow measurements for custody transfer and billing in petroleum operations
Estimating fuel consumption and emissions with temperature-corrected mass flow rates

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure gasoline temperature is close to 15.5°C or apply correction for temperature differences
Use accurate volume flow measurements in gallon (UK)/day for reliable conversion
Apply this conversion only for gasoline due to density and thermal property specificity
Double-check units before performing conversions to prevent errors

Limitations

Dependent on gasoline being at the standard temperature of 15.5°C for accuracy
Not suitable for liquids other than gasoline due to differing densities
Requires precise volume flow data and temperature control or correction to avoid inaccuracies
