I think all of the ratings that are advertised in mass quantities would be at a standard pressure and density. In the field the density would be subject to change with temperature and specific fuel blend. The 1 or 2 percent variation in density that has previously been dicussed in this thread would ...

but why ?

I'm not too sure about the specifics (this is why I'm asking), but I always thought that the only way to accurately meter mass is through a fixed orifice given a known pressure.

Didn't NASA do the same thing for one of their probes ? For a known pressure through a sintered element that ...

if this is wrong, can you please explain why ?
