How many gallon of propane gas is in a hundred cubic feet?

Just doing some research on conversion myself and found the following resource which was helpfulhttp://www.ct.gov/drs/cwp/view.asp?A=1511&Q=267170basicallyCOMPRESSED PROPANE (GASEOUS FORM) EQUIVALENCY INFORMATION: At 14.73 lbs. of pressure per square inch (psi) and 60 degrees Fahrenheit: * 1 cubic foot propane = 0.0278 gallons propane * 100 cubic feet propane = 2.78 gallons propane * 1 gallon propane = 35.97 cubic feet propane * 100 gallons propane = 3597 cubic feet propane Hope this helps


How many cubic feet are there in a 20 gallon propane tank?

1 cubic foot = 7.48 US gallons. Using the factor-label conversion method: 20 gallons x 1 cubic foot/7.48 gallons = 2.67 cubic feet


Is propane or natural gas more cost effective?

In examining the costs of natural gas vs. propane, the rates of local energy utilities and propane companies vary and will need to be taken into account for correct comparison. But to get the cost comparison between the two fuels, you must compare the cost of the energy value which can be obtained through local propane companies and utility companies. While utility companies provide price per cubic foot, propane companies provide price per gallon. Natural gas availability will usually determine whether or not propane can be used because many municipalities will require the use of natural gas if a business or residence is within a certain distance of a natural gas main line.


A natural gas thermal unit equals what equivalent amount of liquid propane gas?

First, what is a "natural gas thermal unit"? Are you talking about a therm? And what is liquid propane gas? How can it be a liquid and a gas? Are you talking about liquid propane, which is the fuel in your barbeque grill? That stuff is in liquid form because it's pressurized. When it comes out of the tank, it turns back into a gas, so one would imagine that your so-called "natural gas thermal unit" would apply. But let's assume you meant "therm." A therm is a unit of energy that is equal to 100 thousand BTUs (British Thermal Units). That is about the amount of heat energy liberated by 100 cubic feet (Ccf) of natural gas. But propane has an equivalent energy capacity of about 2500 BTUs per cubic foot, so that translates to 250,000 BTUs per Ccf -- two and half times greater than the rule of thumb I just stated!! -- which is 2.5 therms per Ccf. So, I guess the question would becomes "What amount of gaseous propane -- at standard temperature and pressure -- is equivalent to one gallon of liquid propane?" The way I figure it, one gallon of liquid propane will produce about 36.6 cubic feet of gas.1 So, a 20-pound tank (which holds 4.1 gallons of liquid propane gas) is equal to about 150 cubic feet (or 1.5 Ccf) of gaseous propane. ______________ 1. And the way I figured it is this: Propane can liberate about 2500 BTUs per cubic foot. We also know it can liberate 91,600 BTUs per liquid gallon. So I divided 91.6E3 by 2.5E3 to get 36.6 cu.ft./gal.

How much does your propane forced air furnace cost per hour to run?

That would depend on it`s size or input rating. You can get the input rating off the unit nameplate and divide that # by 2500 and that will tell you how many cubic feet of propane vapor the furnace burns per hour. If you buy propane by the gallon ask your supplier how many cubic feet of vapor a gallon of liquid propane yields and you can figure your answer.


Which fuel is cheaper to heat with for the same production of btu's?

Natural gas= 1000 btu per cubic ft, propane =2500 btu per cubic ft and #2 fuel oil = 140,000 btu per gallon. Check the availability & prices in your area and you can figure your answer.

How many inches to a gallon?

A gallon is a measure of volume, the inch is a measure of length, the two can not be equated. However the cubic inch and the gallon can be equated, there are 231.00010000000003 cubic inches in one US Gallon.
