Conversion Formula

bbl/h = gpd × 0.0009920634921

About US gallons per day

The US gallon per day (gpd) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/86400 ≈ 4.381×10⁻⁸ m³/s, the standard unit in US water-utility regulation and residential water-well pump sizing. The US national average residential water use is about 80-100 gpd per person; a reverse-osmosis membrane module is rated in gpd (50-100 gpd for domestic units). 1 US gpd ≈ 4.381×10⁻⁸ m³/s.

About US barrels per hour

The US barrel per hour (bbl/h) equals 0.158987294928/3600 ≈ 4.416×10⁻⁵ m³/s, standard in petroleum-refinery process engineering for crude-oil unit feed rates and product run-downs. Crude-distillation unit (CDU) feed is sized in bbl/h; a 100 000 bbl/d refinery processes ≈4 167 bbl/h. Process simulation software (Aspen HYSYS) uses bbl/h by default for petroleum streams. 1 bbl/h ≈ 4.416×10⁻⁵ m³/s.
