GS / CALCULATOR
Tank runtime calculator
Calculate runtime from usable tank volume and hourly fuel consumption.
Start calculating
GS / INPUTS
Estimate autonomy from available fuel
Enter tank volume, reserve percentage and hourly consumption. Match consumption to the expected load and generator model.
Inputs
Calculation method
Runtime hours = tank capacity × (1 − reserve% / 100) ÷ fuel L/h
Interpreting the result
Runtime assumes constant consumption. Account for unusable tank volume and refueling arrangements in the operational reserve.
The result is an initial estimate based on your inputs. Check equipment nameplates, manufacturer data, installation conditions and project requirements before final selection.
