    Thus, while the imperial fluid ounce is 3.924% smaller than the US fluid ounce, the imperial gallon, quart, pint and gill are all 20.095% larger than their US fluid measure counterparts. [e] One avoirdupois ounce of water has an approximate volume of one imperial fluid ounce at 62 °F (16.67 °C) [f]: this convenient fluid ounce to avoirdupois ...

    Oil conversion factor from m³ to bbl (or stb) is 6.28981100 Gas conversion factor from standard m³ to scf is 35.314666721 Note that the m³ gas conversion factor takes into account a difference in the standard temperature base for measurement of gas volumes in metric and imperial units.

  4. 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, 1 ⁄ 128 of a US gallon, or exactly 29.5735295625 mL, making it about 4.084% larger than the imperial fluid ounce. A US food labeling fluid ounce is exactly 30 mL.

  5. API gravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API_gravity

    In the oil industry, quantities of crude oil are often measured in metric tons. One can calculate the approximate number of barrels per metric ton for a given crude oil based on its API gravity: barrels of crude oil per metric ton = API gravity + 131.5 141.5 × 0.159 {\displaystyle {\text{barrels of crude oil per metric ton}}={\frac {{\text{API ...

  6. Tun (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tun_(unit)

    The tun (Old English: tunne, Latin: tunellus, Medieval Latin: tunna) is an English unit of liquid volume (not weight), used for measuring wine, [1] oil or honey. Typically a large vat or vessel, most often holding 252 wine gallons, but occasionally other sizes (e.g. 256, 240 and 208 gallons) were also used. [2] The modern tun is about 954 litres.

  7. Discharge coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discharge_coefficient

    In a nozzle or other constriction, the discharge coefficient (also known as coefficient of discharge or efflux coefficient) is the ratio of the actual discharge to the ideal discharge, [1] i.e., the ratio of the mass flow rate at the discharge end of the nozzle to that of an ideal nozzle which expands an identical working fluid from the same initial conditions to the same exit pressures.

    The alttype field allows conversion between units of different type, provided each unit is whitelisted to allow the conversion. As at December 2013, the following energy units have alttype = "torque" (the first line consists of different units, while the second line consists of aliases for units in the first line):

  9. Imperial and US customary measurement systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperial_and_US_customary...

    Sixteen US fluid ounces make a US pint (8 pints equals 1 gallon in both customary and imperial systems). During the reform of weights and measures legislation in the United Kingdom in 1824, old gallons were replaced by the new imperial gallon, which was defined to be the volume of 10 pounds of water at 62 °F (17 °C), and was determined ...
