  • Comparing specific volume and density values of petroleum products across unit systems.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Always verify the unit system used in your data before converting.
  • Use the precise conversion factor: 1 gallon (UK)/pound equals 1.20095 gallon (US)/pound.
  • Take care to distinguish between Imperial and US gallon definitions to avoid errors.
  • Apply this conversion only for specific volume expressed as volume per pound mass.
  • Confirm all results in your engineering or inventory calculations for consistency.

Limitations

  • Conversion applies only to specific volume units defined as volume per pound mass.
  • Incorrect use of unit systems can cause significant volume estimation errors.
  • The tool assumes standard pound and gallon definitions for UK and US units.
  • It does not convert other unrelated volume or mass units.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does gallon (UK)/pound measure?
It measures the volume in Imperial gallons occupied per avoirdupois pound of mass, representing specific volume.

How do I convert from gallon (UK)/pound to gallon (US)/pound?
Multiply the value in gallon (UK)/pound by 1.20095 to obtain the equivalent gallon (US)/pound value.

Why is it important to convert between these units?
Because UK and US gallons differ in volume, converting ensures accurate volume calculations in engineering and inventory tasks.

Can this converter be used for density values?
This tool converts specific volume units, which are the reciprocal of density, but it does not directly convert density units.

Key Terminology

Specific Volume
The volume occupied per unit mass of a substance, essentially the reciprocal of density.
Gallon (UK)/pound
A unit expressing volume in Imperial gallons for each avoirdupois pound of mass.
Gallon (US)/pound
A unit expressing volume in US liquid gallons per pound of mass.
Avoirdupois Pound
A standard unit of mass commonly used in the Imperial and US customary systems.
