Methodology
Diesel Fuel density and calculation basis
Diesel Fuel is represented in this table by a fixed reference density of 832 kg/m^3, equivalent to 0.832 g/cm^3. Representative diesel density; blend-dependent.
At this fixed reference, 1 liter of Diesel Fuel corresponds to 0.832 kg, while 1 kg corresponds to 1.201923 liters. Its table density is 16.5% lower than the 997 kg/m^3 water reference used in this dataset.
Among the 17 fixed table records labeled Liquids, the nearest density to Diesel Fuel is Kerosene at 810 kg/m^3: an absolute difference of 22 kg/m^3 (2.6% relative to Diesel Fuel). 6 records have a lower fixed density and 10 have a higher one. The observed range in this labeled group is Gasoline at 745 kg/m^3 to Honey at 1420 kg/m^3. This is a numerical comparison, not a claim that the materials are interchangeable.
For this direction, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 6.943377 lb per gal (US).
The fixed value supports repeatable calculations but is not a batch, grade, supplier, or laboratory specification. Use a measured or certified density when those conditions control the result.
