Second [gal (UK)/s]
Gallon per second (UK) [gal (UK)/s] is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of liquid passing through a system every second, using the UK (Imperial) gallon as the standard. One UK gallon equals approximately 4.546 liters, so gal (UK)/s quantifies how many gallons flow each second, making it suitable for high-flow and large-scale fluid systems. This unit is commonly used in hydraulics, water distribution networks, industrial processes, and emergency systems where rapid fluid movement must be monitored and controlled accurately. For instance, in dam releases or large municipal water supply systems, gal (UK)/s helps engineers design pipelines, pumping stations, and valves to deliver massive volumes efficiently and safely. In industrial manufacturing, it regulates liquid flow in processes such as cooling, chemical mixing, or fuel transfer, ensuring operational safety and efficiency. Compared to gal (UK)/min or gal (UK)/h, gallon per second provides real-time measurement and control of very high-volume flows. Using gal (UK)/s allows engineers, technicians, and operators to measure, manage, and optimize large-scale fluid transport, ensuring reliability, safety, and performance in critical municipal and industrial applications.
Pound/Second (Gasoline at 15.5°C) [lb/s]
Pound per second [lb/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 6.073 lb/gal (0.725 g/cm³). Expressed in lb/s, this unit is commonly used in fuel delivery systems, engine performance analysis, and industrial fuel handling where precise measurement of fuel mass flow is critical. For example, in internal combustion engines, monitoring gasoline flow at 2 lb/s ensures accurate fuel injection rates, optimizing performance, efficiency, and emissions control. In fuel transport pipelines or storage systems, lb/s allows operators to track rapid mass transfer and prevent overflows or shortages. Compared to lb/min or lb/hour, pound per second provides high-resolution, real-time monitoring, enabling immediate adjustments to maintain system stability and safety. Using lb/s for gasoline at 15.5°C allows engineers, technicians, and operators to measure, control, and optimize fuel mass flow, ensuring operational efficiency, precise dosing, and safe handling in automotive, industrial, and energy applications where fuel performance and consistency are crucial.
