Common questions

What is the density of a cubic meter of diesel?

What is the density of a cubic meter of diesel?

Diesel weighs 0.8508 gram per cubic centimeter or 850.8 kilogram per cubic meter, i.e. density of diesel is equal to 850.8 kg/m³; at 15.5°C (59.9°F or 288.65K) at standard atmospheric pressure . In Imperial or US customary measurement system, the density is equal to 53.11 pound per cubic foot [lb/ft³], or 0.4918 ounce per cubic inch [oz/inch³] .

How are gasoline and diesel fuel consumption measured?

Gasoline and diesel fuel measurement from single injector testing to on-vehicle flow measurement across the automotive and on/off-highway transportation industries. Fuel consumption continues to be a primary measure of success in the automotive industry with improvements through vehicle testing.

How are CO2 and HC measured in a diesel engine?

The way this is done is as follows: Take exhaust gas readings with the analyzer fuel selection set to measure HC as Hexane (H-C6) – as with a gasoline powered engine. Add the CO and CO2 values just obtained. (Note that the sum of the two concentrations is considerably below 15.0%.)

How much is a gallon of diesel fuel?

Since diesel fuel density is equal to 53.11 lbs/ft³, which is equavalent to 7.1 lbs/gallon or 113.596 oz/gallon.

How many liters of diesel do you need per gallon?

Dose at every fuel stop. Once you’ve filled the thanks, dose out the correct amount of catalyst for each tank. Measure out one ounce per every 25 gallons of diesel fuel. Use the back of the bottle for reference. For gasoline engines, the correct dosing is one ounce for every 30 gallons of fuel, or one ml per gallon.

How much does a cubic meter of diesel weigh?

100 000. Diesel weighs 0.8508 gram per cubic centimeter or 850.8 kilogram per cubic meter, i.e. density of diesel is equal to 850.8 kg/m³; at 15.5°C (59.9°F or 288.65K) at standard atmospheric pressure.

What’s the correct dosing for a gas engine?

For gasoline engines, the correct dosing is one ounce for every 30 gallons of fuel, or one ml per gallon. The catalyst is designed to mix itself. That’s it! Rolling dynamometer engine testing for fuel economy under controlled conditions. We are pleased to share the results:
