How LPG kg to Liters Converter Works?
The LPG kg to Liters Converter works in 3 steps.
- 1
Enter the mass of LPG in kilograms (kg), such as the net fill printed on a cylinder.
- 2
Keep 0.54 kg/L for a propane-butane mix at 15 °C (59 °F); pure propane sits near 0.51 kg/L and pure butane near 0.58 kg/L.
- 3
Read the liquid liters (L) for autogas tanks and bulk storage.
LPG kg to Liters Converter Formula
The LPG kg to Liters Converter formula is:
Volume (L) = Mass of lpg (kg) ÷ 0.54 kg/LThe reverse formula is Mass (kg) = Volume of lpg (L) × 0.54 kg/L.
Worked example
10 kg (22.05 lb) of lpg ÷ 0.54 kg/L = 18.52 L (4.892 US gal).
LPG tanks fill to 80% to 85% of water capacity. The gap leaves room for liquid expansion, which reaches about 0.25% per 1 °C.
