What Is This Tool?

This online unit converter allows you to convert volumetric flow rates measured in gallon (UK)/minute to mass flow rates expressed in pound/minute for gasoline at 15.5°C. It helps translate imperial volume flow into temperature-referenced mass flow for accurate engineering and custody applications.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the flow rate value in gallon (UK)/minute
Select the from-unit as gallon (UK)/minute and to-unit as pound/minute for gasoline at 15.5°C
Initiate the conversion to obtain the mass flow rate in pound/minute
Use the results for engineering calculations, fuel monitoring, or custody documentation

Key Features

Converts from gallon (UK)/minute to pound/minute specific to gasoline at 15.5°C reference temperature
Accounts for volumetric to mass flow conversion with temperature-standardized density
Suitable for engineering, petroleum refining, and fuel distribution contexts
Includes example conversions for quick reference
Supports accurate measurement needed for custody transfer and quality control

Examples

2 gallon (UK)/minute converts to approximately 14.82 pound/minute (Gasoline at 15.5°C)
5 gallon (UK)/minute converts to about 37.05 pound/minute (Gasoline at 15.5°C)

Common Use Cases

Sizing pumps, pipes, and hoses in systems using imperial gallons for flow rates
Custody transfer and invoicing of gasoline shipments with temperature-corrected mass flow
Refinery metering, loading, and quality control of gasoline products
Engineering assessments of pipeline design and fuel consumption based on standardized mass flow

Tips & Best Practices

Always verify that gasoline density references 15.5°C to ensure accurate conversions
Use this tool specifically for gasoline flow; other fluids require different density corrections
Confirm units before converting to avoid errors in engineering or custody applications
Apply conversion results in contexts where temperature and mass standardization are essential

Limitations

Conversion presumes gasoline density at the standard temperature of 15.5°C; deviations may reduce accuracy
Not applicable for other fluids without proper density adjustments
Accuracy depends on consistent gasoline composition matching the reference conditions
