Reid vapor pressure (RVP) of gasoline is the vapor pressure at 100°F.

Use the Equation of State (EOS) in combination with the Antoine's Equation to determine vapor pressure.
Depends on temperature. For ASTM D323 the RVP of water is ~49.5 mmHg (torr) gauge or ~809 mmHg absolute (assuming standard pressure). FYI - ASTM D323 is measured at 100F.
Teflon is inert to gasoline and all petroleum products. The problem with Teflon is it cold flows under pressure so that when tightened (when wrapped around your fitting) it will relax eventually and probably not seal properly. This is not something you want where gasoline can leak.
From the Crude Splitter Column top tray, gasoline in vapor form is condensed in the condenser overhead vessel. The gasoline product from the vessel is sent to the gasoline stripper column. The bottom product of this gasoline stripper column is termed SR Gasoline.

Under the ASTM Method D 323 (Reid vapour pressure), it is the absolute vapour pressure exerted by a liquid at 100°F. The higher this value, the more volatile the sample and the more readily it will evaporate. Unlike distillation data, vapour pressure provides a single value that reflects the combined effect of the individual vapour pressure of the different petroleum fractions in accordance with their mole ratios. It is thus possible for two wholly different products to exhibit the same vapour pressure at the same temperature - provided the cumulative pressures exerted by the fractions are the same. A narrow-cut distillate, for example, may exhibit the same vapour pressure as that of a dumbbell blend, where the effect of heavy fractions is counterbalanced by that of the lighter ones. In conjunction with other volatility data. Reid vapour pressure plays a role in the prediction of gasoline performance.
The volatility of gasoline.
>68 KPa and <75 kPa at 100F (37.8C)
The amount of light components in the oil affect the reid vapor vapor pressure. In petroleum products such as gasoline, the amount of butane in the gasoline blend has a strong affect on the Reid Vapor Pressure. To reduce RVP more stripping steam can be added to the product strippers. The fractionation in the debutanizer might also need to be adjusted to affect the RVP.
Gasoline - Vapour Pressure (absolute): < 107 kPa @ 38 °C
Gasoline is usually a liquid. Although it has a low evaporation Point and easily turns into vapour.
evaporation as such influence on the total pressure. evaporation occurs when the total pressure is greater than the surface molecules vapour pressure. as the rate of evaporation increases , more vapour will be there at the top, and then the new total pressure will become the sum of the earlier total pressure and vapour pressure of the vapour evaporated. hence total pressure increases.............
It is vapor molecules in equilibrium with a liquid in a closed system exert a pressure proportional to the concentration of molecules in the vapor state.
alcohol has high vapour pressure than water at room temperature.
Relative lowering of vapour pressure is function of pressure of pure liquid and pressure of solutions when you increase temperature both the values increase and compensate the increase value, According to the Raoult's law, Psolvent = Xsolvent Po where Psolvent is the vapour pressure of the liquid solution, Xsolvent is its mole fraction in the solution and Po is the pure vapour pressure.
