t/Year [ac·ft/y]
Acre-foot per year [ac·ft/y] is a unit of volumetric flow rate commonly used in hydrology, water resource management, and irrigation planning. One acre-foot represents the volume of water required to cover one acre of land to a depth of one foot, which is approximately 1,233 cubic meters or 325,851 gallons. When expressed per year, ac·ft/y quantifies the total water volume delivered, used, or available over a 12-month period. This unit is particularly useful for managing large-scale water supplies, such as reservoirs, rivers, or agricultural irrigation systems, providing a standardized measure to estimate annual water availability and consumption. For example, an irrigation system supplying 500 ac·ft/y delivers enough water to cover 500 acres to a depth of one foot over a year. It is also used to plan municipal water supply, allocate water rights, and forecast long-term resource needs. Compared to daily or monthly flow units, acre-foot per year gives a macro-level perspective, suitable for long-term planning, resource management, and sustainability assessments. Using ac·ft/y enables engineers, hydrologists, and policymakers to monitor, manage, and optimize water resources, ensuring efficient allocation and conservation for agricultural, municipal, and industrial use.
Kilogram/Second (Gasoline at 15.5°C) [kg/s]
Kilogram per second [kg/s] is a unit of mass flow rate that measures the mass of a substance passing through a system every second. When specified for gasoline at 15.5°C (approximately 60°F), it accounts for the density of gasoline under standard conditions, which is about 0.725 g/cm³. Expressed in kg/s, this unit is widely used in fuel injection systems, industrial fuel delivery, and engine performance analysis where precise real-time measurement of fuel mass is critical. For example, an engine consuming 1.2 kg/s of gasoline can be analyzed to optimize combustion efficiency, reduce emissions, and improve overall performance. In pipelines or storage systems, kg/s allows operators to monitor rapid mass transfer, prevent overflows, and maintain system stability. Compared to kg/min or kg/h, kilogram per second provides high-resolution, real-time monitoring, enabling immediate adjustments to fuel flow for optimal operation. Using kg/s for gasoline at 15.5°C allows engineers, technicians, and operators to measure, control, and optimize fuel mass flow, ensuring efficient combustion, precise dosing, and safe handling in automotive, industrial, and energy applications where fuel performance and consistency are crucial.
