Dry gallon measure of approximately the same size, though the dry gallon is a bit bigger. 1 dry gallon ≈ 1.163 647 fluid gallons Its implicit value in the US system was originally one eighth of the Winchester bushel, which was a cylindrical measure of 18.5 inches in diameter and 8 inches in depth. That made the dry gallon a non-terminating number of cubic inches, an irrational number whose value with the first six digits after the decimal point was 268.802521 ( cubic inches ≈ ). The bushel was later defined to be exactly 2150.42 cubic inches, making the dry gallon exactly
Gasoline gallon equivalent Gasoline gallon equivalent Gasoline gallon equivalent (GGE) or gasoline-equivalent gallon (GEG) is the amount of alternative fuel it takes to equal the energy content of one liquid gallon of gasoline. GGE allows consumers to compare the energy content of competing fuels against a commonly known fuel—gasoline. GGE also compares gasoline to fuels sold as a gas (natural gas, propane, hydrogen) and electricity. In 1994, the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) defined "gasoline gallon equivalent (GGE) means 5.660 pounds of natural gas." Compressed natural gas (CNG), for example, is a gas rather than a liquid. It can be
