Density of Fuel 2022

Definition

The density of fuel is the weight of fuel per its volume.

Formula

ρ = m / V

• ρ:  Density
• m: mass
• V: Volume

Density vs Specific Weight vs Specific Gravity

I would like to point out that there are conceptual differences between density, specific weight and specific gravity. Follow the link if you want to learn more about these differences.

With that said, this page will provide you the fuel density in kg/m³ (SI unit), g/cm³, g/ml, kg/l, lb/ft³.

Density of Fuel

900 kg/m³ (Crude Oil)

750 kg/m³ (Gasoline)

760 kg/m³ (Bioethanol)

830 kg/m³ (Diesel)

Here is some conversions for gasoline:

𝛒 = 0.75 g/cm³

𝛒 = 0.75 g/ml
𝛒 = 750 g/L

𝛒 = 46.821 lb/ft³
