British Thermal Unit (IT) Per Gallon (US) (Btu (IT)/gal (US)) is a unit in the category of Energy density. It is also known as Btu per gallon, Btu/gal, Btu/gallon. This unit is commonly used in the US unit system. British Thermal Unit (IT) Per Gallon (US) (Btu (IT)/gal (US)) has a dimension of ML^-1T^-2 where M is mass, L is length, and T is time. It can be converted to the corresponding standard SI unit J/m³ by multiplying its value by a factor of 278716.2698.

Note that the seven base dimensions are M (Mass), L (Length), T (Time), Q (Temperature), N (Aamount of Substance), I (Electric Current), and J (Luminous Intensity).

Other units in the category of Energy density include British Thermal Unit (IT) Per Cubic Foot (Btu (IT)/ft³), British Thermal Unit (IT) Per Gallon (UK) (Btu (IT)/gal (UK)), Joule Per Cubic Meter (J/m³), Kilojoule Per Cubic Meter (kJ/m³), and Megagauss-Oersted (MGOe) (MGOe).
