On average, there are about 5.8 million British Thermal Units (BTUs) in a barrel of crude oil. This energy content can vary depending on the type and quality of the crude oil.
There are approximately 231 cubic inches in a gallon of oil.
When it's full, it holds 330 gallons of whatever they poured into it. But we have no way of knowing what's in it today, or how much.
On average, 1 barrel of crude oil is equivalent to about 5,800 cubic feet, or 5.8 Mcf, of natural gas in terms of energy content. This comparison can vary depending on the specific composition and quality of the crude oil.
There are approximately 0.264 gallons in 1 kilogram.
#2 fuel oil = 140,000 btu/gallon. Psi does not matter.
No. 6 fuel oil has a combustion value of 151,300 - 155,900 Btu/US gallon.
139,600
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.
The average heating value of heating oil is around 138,500 Btu per gallon. Since there are approximately 3.785 liters in a gallon, one liter of heating oil would contain about 36,600 Btu.
#2 fuel oil = 140,000 btu per gallon/10 =14000 btu X 2 =28000 btu
Yes. Its all hydrogen and carbon. Reduce it until it is the heat range you want it to be. You will find that if done properly it is safe and adds value to your waste oil by giving it more btu's per gallon. Do not burn it without reduction!
The number of BTU's per gallon of oil depends on the type of oil, of which there are many different kinds for different uses. The links, below, offer guidance in converting such values. Use your favorite web search engine to find conversions for specific oils, per the following examples: convert gallon of diesel fuel #1 to BTU convert gallon of home heating oil to BTU
Oil has the higher BTU rating Depends. If it is Liquified Nat. Gas then it has the higher rating.
#2 fuel oil = 140,000 btu
About 5,800,640.8 BTU
