  2. Gallon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallon

    In 1963, this definition was refined as the space occupied by 10 pounds of distilled water of density 0.998 859 g/mL weighed in air of density 0.001 217 g/mL against weights of density 8.136 g/mL (the original "brass" was refined as the densities of brass alloys vary depending on metallurgical composition), which was calculated as 4.546 091 879 ...

  3. Gasoline gallon equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_gallon_equivalent

    The fuel consumption is an equivalent measure for cars sold outside the United States, typically measured in litres per 100 km traveled; in general, the fuel consumption and miles per gallon would be reciprocals with appropriate conversion factors, but because different countries use different driving cycles to measure fuel consumption, fuel ...

    US dry barrel: 7,056 cubic inches (115.6 litres; 3.3 US bushels) . Defined as length of stave 28 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (72 cm), diameter of head 17 + 1 ⁄ 8 in (43 cm), distance between heads 26 in (66 cm), circumference of bulge 64 in (160 cm) outside measurement; representing as nearly as possible 7,056 cubic inches; and the thickness of staves not greater than 4 ⁄ 10 in (10 mm) [2] (diameter ≈ ...

  5. Conversion of units - Wikipedia

    = 10 parts per million by volume = 10 ppmv = 10 volumes/10 6 volumes NO x molar mass = 46 kg/kmol = 46 g/mol Flow rate of flue gas = 20 cubic metres per minute = 20 m 3 /min The flue gas exits the furnace at 0 °C temperature and 101.325 kPa absolute pressure. The molar volume of a gas at 0 °C temperature and 101.325 kPa is 22.414 m 3 /kmol.

  6. Litre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Litre

    A litre is a cubic decimetre, which is the volume of a cube 10 centimetres × 10 centimetres × 10 centimetres (1 L ≡ 1 dm 3 ≡ 1000 cm 3). Hence 1 L ≡ 0.001 m 3 ≡ 1000 cm 3 ; and 1 m 3 (i.e. a cubic metre, which is the SI unit for volume) is exactly 1000 L.

  7. Unit of volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_volume

    Erntefestmeter (Efm), a unit of volume for trees or forests which assumes a 10% loss due to bark and 10% during the felling process. Vorratsfestmeter (Vfm), a unit of volume for trees or forests based on measurements including the bark. Raummeter (rm), or stere (stacked firewood) = 0.7 m 3 (stacked woodpile with air spaces)

  8. Fluid ounce - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_ounce

    An imperial fluid ounce is 1 ⁄ 20 of an imperial pint, 1 ⁄ 160 of an imperial gallon or exactly 28.4130625 mL. A US customary fluid ounce is 1 ⁄ 16 of a US liquid pint and 1 ⁄ 128 of a US liquid gallon or exactly 29.5735295625 mL, making it about 4.08% larger than the imperial fluid ounce. A US food labeling fluid ounce is exactly 30 mL.

  9. Standard drink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_drink

    A half-litre (500 ml) of standard lager or ale (5%) contains 2.5 UK units. One litre (1000 ml) of typical Oktoberfest beer (5.5–6%) contains 5.5–6 UK units of alcohol. A beer bottle is typically between 333 and 355 ml (11.3 and 12.0 US fl oz), approximately 1.7 UK units at 5%.
