How Many Cubic Feet Of Propane Gas In A 500 Gallon Tank?

0

Trying to determine how long a 500 gallon tank will supply an auxiliary generator that consumes 550 cubic feet of propane per hour of operation.

0

There are 231 cubic inches per US gallon, or 0.134 cubic feet per US gallon, and 500 gallons x 0.134 cubic feet/gallon would be 66.8 cubic feet in the tank. So if you release a pressurized gas from a 175 psi tank to 14.7 psi (sea-level), the gas will expand to 11.9 times more volume, or 786 cubic feet.
