Use a classic calculator. With Fuel Blocks you won't have any difficulties to calculate fuel for any POS.

There are 24 hours in a day, 30 days in a standard month, and your (non faction) tower uses either 40, 20, or 10 blocks an hour dependent upon large, medium, or small size respectively.

30 days is 720 hours this is a good number as POSes do not hold more than 30 days of fuel, except for maybe some faction towers.

large POS 720x40= 28800 blocks per month
medium POS 720x20= 14400 blocks per month
small POS 720x10= 7200 blocks per month

if you want to calculate fuel for less than a month is just as easy.

(number of days) x 24 x (number of blocks per hour for your POS) = (fuel you need)

I believe some faction towers have fuel bonuses and use less than the normal amount of fuel check info on the tower for this number.

All regular towers hold the same amount of fuel: 700 hours.

If the tower is in hisec, then that drops to 699 hours to make room for charters.

Large: 28000 blocks or 27960 blocks + 699 charters
Medium: 14000 blocks or 13980 blocks + 699 charters
Small: 7000 blocks or 6990 blocks + 699 charters

Faction towers and those with SOV use less (though I wouldn't use a faction tower these days).

also having sov in a system reduces the amount of fuel blocks you need per hour by 25% (rounded up to 8 blocks per hour for a small pos)

Load orca / hauler with fuel blocks / charters, fly out to tower, dump in charters, dump in fuel blocks until full, go to next tower.

Fly remaining fuel blocks (if any) back to the station.

And setup a stockpile in jEVEAssets to monitor the tower's fuel inventory. Refill when the little box goes from green/yellow to red. Or just go every 2 weeks.
