What does gallon (US)/second measure?

It measures the volumetric flow rate as the amount of US liquid gallons passing a point every second.

Can ounce/second represent both fluid and mass flow?

Yes, ounce/second can indicate either fluid volume per second or mass flow depending on the context.

Is this conversion valid for UK gallons?

No, the conversion is based on the US liquid gallon and does not apply to UK gallon measurements.

What Is This Tool?

This tool converts flow rates from gallon (US) per second to ounce per second (oz/s), allowing users to express volumetric flow in smaller, more precise units appropriate for various industrial, laboratory, and processing tasks.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the flow rate value in gallon (US)/second.
Select gallon (US)/second as the input unit and ounce/second [oz/s] as the output unit.
Click the convert button to see the equivalent flow rate in ounces per second.
Review the result and apply it for your specific dosing, calibration, or measurement needs.

Key Features

Accurately converts large flow rates from gallon (US)/second to ounce/second (oz/s).
Supports applications in firefighting, irrigation, manufacturing, and laboratory settings.
Provides straightforward formula and example-based conversions.
Browser-based and easy to use with intuitive input fields.

Examples

2 Gallon (US)/second equals 256 Ounce/second [oz/s].
0.5 Gallon (US)/second equals 64 Ounce/second [oz/s].

Common Use Cases

Measuring high-capacity water pump discharge rates in firefighting applications.
Quantifying flow in irrigation and large plumbing systems.
Controlling ingredient dosing speeds in food and beverage dispensing.
Calibrating laboratory dispensers and nebulizers for precise small flow rates.
Specifying mass feed rates for manufacturing additives or coatings.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure the 'ounce' unit used refers to fluid ounces for volume flow conversions to avoid ambiguity.
Confirm that the gallon unit is the US liquid gallon, as UK gallons or dry measurements differ.
Use the conversion for short-duration or small-scale flow rate measurements to increase precision.
Double-check unit selections corresponding to your application to maintain accuracy.

Limitations

The term 'ounce' can denote fluid or mass ounces, potentially causing confusion without context.
Conversion assumes use of US liquid gallons and fluid ounces—not applicable for UK gallons or dry ounces.
Accuracy depends on consistent use of volumetric fluid ounces in flow measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions
