I can respond to tell you what seems most familiar to me, a native

meters/second (or per minute) or alternatively cubic centimeters/sec
(cc/sec).
default to SI units is fine. local units should be permissable.

The problem with gallons .. there are 2 of them!
US and UK ... about 0.5 litres difference between them ..the US one is
smaller.
So if someone says 'gallons' .. you have to look at where they are (and
hopefully they are not a tourist/immigrant).
