The weight of a gallon of oil can vary depending on the type of oil. However, as a general estimation, most oils weigh around 7-8 pounds per gallon.
#2 fuel oil = 140,000 btu/gallon. Psi does not matter.
On average, waste oil contains about 140,000 BTU per gallon. However, the specific BTU content can vary depending on the type of waste oil and its quality.
No. 6 fuel oil has a combustion value of 151,300 - 155,900 Btu/US gallon.
approx. 140,000
btu per pound * pounds per gallon OK, it sounds as if you know the value of fuel in oil btu per pound.Now find out how much a gallon of fuel oil weighs and multiply the btu value x that weight in pounds and that is the value per gallon. Or simply, diesel fuel is #2 fuel oil which contains 140,000 btu per gallon.
114,000 BTU/gallon
For regular gasoline, 125,000 BTU per US gallon
Propylene has a lower heating value of approximately 21,500 BTU per gallon.
About 114,000 BTU per US gallon.
#2 fuel oil = 140,000 btu per gallon/10 =14000 btu X 2 =28000 btu
Oil has the higher BTU rating Depends. If it is Liquified Nat. Gas then it has the higher rating.
