What does gallon (UK)/minute measure?

It measures volumetric flow rate as the number of imperial gallons passing a point per minute, used in water supply and plumbing.

Where is barrel (US)/hour commonly used?

It is used for quantifying flow rates of crude oil, refined products, and fluid transport in petroleum engineering.

Can this conversion be used for all fluids?

It is intended for liquid phase fluids and may not apply accurately if fluid density or temperature varies.

What Is This Tool?

This converter changes flow rates from gallon (UK)/minute, a unit measuring the volume of fluid per minute using imperial gallons, to barrel (US)/hour, which measures the volume of fluid per hour in oil barrels. It is useful for applications in plumbing, water supply, and petroleum engineering.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the flow rate value in gallon (UK)/minute.
Select the input unit as gallon (UK)/minute.
Choose the output unit as barrel (US)/hour [bbl (US)/h].
Click convert to see the equivalent flow rate in barrel (US)/hour.

Key Features

Converts UK gallon per minute flow rates to US barrel per hour units accurately.
Supports volumetric flow measurements used in plumbing and oil industries.
Browser-based and easy to use for quick conversions.
Suitable for engineering, firefighting, and petroleum transport contexts.

Examples

5 gallon (UK)/minute converts to approximately 8.58 barrel (US)/hour.
10 gallon (UK)/minute converts to approximately 17.16 barrel (US)/hour.

Common Use Cases

Specifying pump and hose capacities for water supply or irrigation in regions using imperial gallons.
Sizing plumbing fixtures and systems for expected flow rates.
Reporting rates of crude oil production or refinery throughput in barrels per hour.

Tips & Best Practices

Verify that the volumetric basis matches the fluid phase and regional standards.
Use consistent units when comparing or combining flow data across systems.
Ensure steady flow conditions for accurate conversion relevance.

Limitations

Conversion assumes steady flow and does not consider fluid density or temperature effects.
Units come from different measurement systems and should be applied with understanding of their context.
Confirm fluid state and measurement standards before applying the conversion.
