What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms volumetric flow rates expressed in gallon (US) per second into mass flow rates expressed in pound per day for gasoline at a standardized temperature of 15.5 °C. It is designed for accurate measurement standardization in petroleum industry processes, fuel inventory management, and environmental reporting.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the flow rate value in gallon (US) per second.
Select gallon (US)/second as the input unit and pound/day (Gasoline at 15.5°C) as the output unit.
Click the convert button to get the mass flow equivalent based on standard gasoline conditions.

Key Features

Converts volumetric flow unit gallon (US)/second to mass flow unit pound/day for gasoline at 15.5 °C.
Accounts for gasoline density standardized at 15.5 °C to ensure consistency in measurements.
Supports petroleum industry applications such as custody transfer and refinery calculations.
Browser-based and easy to use for quick conversions.

Examples

Convert 2 gallon (US)/second to pound/day: 2 × 533,088 = 1,066,176 pound/day (Gasoline at 15.5°C).
Convert 0.5 gallon (US)/second to pound/day: 0.5 × 533,088 = 266,544 pound/day (Gasoline at 15.5°C).

Common Use Cases

Calculating flow rates for gasoline custody transfer and inventory at terminals and pipelines.
Performing throughput and mass-balance calculations at refineries for gasoline processing.
Monitoring fuel consumption or emissions with mass-based daily gasoline volumes for environmental reports.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure the temperature of gasoline corresponds to the 15.5 °C reference for accurate mass flow results.
Use this conversion only for gasoline flows; other liquids require appropriate property adjustments.
For small flow measurements, employ precise instrumentation due to the large magnitude of the conversion factor.

Limitations

The conversion assumes gasoline temperature is exactly 15.5 °C; deviations affect accuracy due to density changes.
This tool is specific to gasoline and not directly applicable to other fluids without modification.
High conversion rate reflects large scale flows and may not suit very low flow rates without precise measurement.
