Compiled Q - A - SDPI

This document provides important conversion formulas for volume, pressure, length, heat, temperature, and horsepower between different units of measurement. Some key conversions include: 1 cubic foot = 7.48 gallons, 1 pound per square inch = 6.895 kilopascals, 1 inch = 25.4 millimeters, 1 British thermal unit = the heat required to raise 1 pound of water by 1 degree Fahrenheit, and Celsius to Fahrenheit conversion as C = (F - 32) * 5/9.

IMPORTANT CONVERSIONS

VOLUME
1 FU = 1 CU.FT.
1 CU.FT. = 7.48 GAL
1 GAL = 3.785 LITERS
1 GAL = 8.34 LBS
1 CU.M = 1000L

PRESSURE
1 PSI = 6.895 KPA
1 PSI = 2.31 FT OF HEAD
1 PSI = 51.7149 TORR
1 PSI = 51.7149 MMHG
1 PSI = 1/14.504 BAR
1 PSI = 1/14.696 ATM
1 ATM = 1.01325 BAR

LENGTH
1 INCH = 25.4 MM
1 FOOT = 304.8 MM

HEAT
1 CFH (natural gas) = 1000 BTUH
1 CFH (LPG) = 2500 BTUH
1 KW = 3412.14 BTUH
BTUH = 8.33Q (T1 - T2)
% = (Tfinal - Tcold) / (Thot - Tcold)
TEMPERATURE
C = (F - 32) * 5/9
F = (9/5)*C + 32
K = C + 273.15
R = F + 459,67
f = C*0.8

HORSEPOWER
hp = (ft * lb) / (33,000 * tmin)
Whp = (flow, gpm * head, ft) / 3960
hp = density x vol x gravity x height / pump efficiency
