About Converting Imperial gallon per Hours to Oil barrel per Hours
Imperial gallon per Hours and Oil barrel per Hours both measure volumetric flow rate — how much volume passes a point over time — used to size pipes and pumps, monitor river or stream discharge, control industrial processes, and set medical infusion rates. Both are volumetric flow rate units.
Formula
oil barrel per hours = imperial gallon per hours × 0.0285940458454
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 imperial gallon per hours equals 0.00000126280277778 base units, and 1 oil barrel per hours equals 0.00004416313748 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct imperial gallon per hours-to-oil barrel per hours factor of 0.0285940458454.
Simple example
1 imp gal/h × 0.02859404585 = 0.0285940459 bbl/h
1 imperial gallon per hours = 0.0285940459 oil barrel per hours.
Real-world example
60 imp gal/h × 0.02859404585 = 1.715642751 bbl/h
60 imperial gallon per hours = 1.715642751 oil barrel per hours.

How do I convert oil barrel per hours back to imperial gallon per hours?
Use the reverse factor: 1 oil barrel per hours equals 34.97231575 imperial gallon per hours. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a imperial gallon per hours?
Imperial gallon per Hours (imp gal/h) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a oil barrel per hours?
Oil barrel per Hours (bbl/h) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the imperial gallon per hours to oil barrel per hours conversion exact?
Yes. Both imperial gallon per hours and oil barrel per hours are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.02859404585 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between volumetric and mass flow rate?
Volumetric flow rate measures the volume of fluid passing a point per unit time (for example, liters per second). Mass flow rate measures the mass instead. For a fluid of constant density the two are directly proportional, but for compressible fluids like gases, mass flow is often the more meaningful quantity.
