Second [gal (US)/s]
Gallon per second (US) [gal (US)/s] is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of liquid passing through a system every second, using the US liquid gallon as the standard. One US gallon equals approximately 3.785 liters, so gal (US)/s quantifies how many gallons flow each second, making it suitable for applications requiring very high flow rates. This unit is commonly used in hydraulics, large-scale water distribution, industrial processes, and emergency systems where rapid fluid movement must be monitored and controlled accurately. For instance, in water supply networks or dam releases, gal (US)/s helps engineers design pipelines, pumping stations, and valves to deliver large volumes of water efficiently. In industrial manufacturing, it regulates the flow of liquids in processes like cooling, chemical mixing, or fuel transfer, ensuring smooth and safe operation. Compared to gal/min or gal/h, gallon per second provides real-time measurement and control, enabling immediate response to changes in flow demand. Using gal (US)/s allows engineers, technicians, and managers to measure, manage, and optimize high-volume fluid flow, ensuring efficiency, safety, and reliable operation in critical municipal and industrial applications.
Pound/Day (Gasoline at 15.5°C) [lb/d]
Pound per day [lb/d] is a unit of mass flow rate that measures the mass of a substance passing through a system over a 24-hour period. When specified for gasoline at 15.5°C (approximately 60°F), it accounts for the standard density of gasoline, roughly 6.073 lb/gal (0.725 g/cm³). Expressed in lb/d, this unit is commonly used in fuel storage, inventory management, and long-term consumption monitoring for industrial, automotive, and energy applications. For example, a fuel storage facility supplying 172,800 lb/d of gasoline can track daily usage, plan resupply schedules, and manage inventory efficiently. In pipelines or large-scale fueling operations, lb/d allows operators to assess total daily fuel transfer, optimize delivery logistics, and ensure safety. Compared to lb/h or lb/min, pound per day provides a macro-level overview, making it suitable for strategic planning, reporting, and long-term operational analysis. Using lb/d for gasoline at 15.5°C enables engineers, operators, and energy managers to monitor, regulate, and optimize fuel mass flow over extended periods, ensuring accurate accounting, efficient fuel use, and reliable operation in industrial, automotive, and energy systems where consistent fuel management is critical.
