LPG (Liquefied petroleum gas or Auto-gas) is liquefied under moderate pressure. When allowed to revert to vapour it expands 270 times its liquid volume.

LPG is a hydrocarbon fuel comprising of a mixture of mostly propane and butane.-Automotive LPG is not the same as the LPG used in domestic applications including BBQs. Appliances such as BBQs are designed to operate on 100 percent propane only.

How Many Litres of LPG equals 1 Cubic Meter?

Conversion factor depends on various factors like composition of the LPG, temperature, molecular weight and so many others.Following are the conversion factors just for rough calculations.One kg of liquid Propane when converted to vapour (at 15.56 degrees centigrade temperature) will be equal to 0.539 Cubic Meter.One kg of liquid Butane when converted to vapour (at 15.5 degrees centigrade temperature) will be equal to 0.410 Cubic Meter.One kg of liquid LPG (70:30) when converted to vapour (at 15.5 degrees centigrade temperature) will be equal to 0.449 Cubic Meter.OR45kg LPG = 20.20 Cu. Meter vapour. Or for 45kg Propane = 24.26 Cu. Meter of vapour.As a thumb rule Liquid Propane expands to 270 times and Butane to 235 times into vapour when released into air.
