Fuel Injector Flow Converter

Convert injector flow between cc/min and lb/hr using an adjustable fuel-density assumption.

Worked example

At 0.745 g/mL, 550 cc/min is about 54.2 lb/hr. A different fuel density changes the result even though the injector's volumetric flow figure is unchanged.

Why density is editable

Petrol blends, ethanol content, temperature and other fuels have different densities. A single hard-coded “10.5 cc/min per lb/hr” rule is convenient but hides that assumption.

Flow rating conditions still matter

Injector ratings also depend on pressure differential and test conditions. This tool converts the stated flow units; it does not correct a flow rating for a different fuel pressure.
