What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms fuel consumption measurements from liter/100 km, a common metric for vehicle fuel economy, into meter per US fluid ounce, a unit expressing distance traveled per US fluid ounce of fuel. It is ideal for comparing fuel efficiency in contexts where fuel is measured in small US fluid ounce amounts.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the fuel consumption value in liter/100 km.
-
Select the desired output unit as meter/fluid ounce (US).
-
Click the convert button to get the equivalent fuel economy in meter per fluid ounce.
-
Review the result to understand fuel efficiency in the target unit.
Key Features
-
Converts fuel consumption from liter/100 km to meter/fluid ounce (US) unit.
-
Supports analysis of vehicle and small engine fuel efficiency.
-
Browser-based and easy to use without installation.
-
Provides clear numerical conversion based on exact conversion rates.
Examples
-
5 L/100 km converts to approximately 14786.76 meter/fluid ounce (US).
-
10 L/100 km equals about 29573.53 meter/fluid ounce (US).
Common Use Cases
-
Passenger vehicle fuel-economy labeling and specifications.
-
Small engine testing such as lawn mowers or portable generators.
-
Laboratory and model engine performance evaluations for drones and model aircraft.
-
Fuel efficiency comparisons for camping stoves and handheld gas-powered tools.
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure the fuel consumption value is accurate and represents typical operation.
-
Use the meter/fluid ounce (US) unit primarily for small engines or equipment using fuel in US fluid ounces.
-
Consider variations in fuel type and engine conditions when interpreting results.
-
Use this conversion to compare fuel efficiency when different units are used in specifications.
Limitations
-
Conversion assumes standard US fluid ounce volume and metric distance units.
-
Actual fuel consumption can vary with engine efficiency and operating conditions beyond this unit conversion.
-
Meter/fluid ounce (US) is less common and might be unfamiliar in broad automotive contexts.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does liter/100 km measure?
-
It measures the volume of fuel in liters needed to travel 100 kilometers, commonly used to indicate vehicle fuel consumption.
-
When should I use meter per fluid ounce (US)?
-
This unit is useful for small engines and portable equipment where fuel is consumed in small quantities measured in US fluid ounces.
-
Does this conversion account for different fuel types?
-
No, the conversion only changes the units; differences in fuel types or engine efficiencies are not considered.
Key Terminology
-
Liter/100 km [L/100 km]
-
A metric unit indicating how many liters of fuel a vehicle consumes to travel 100 kilometers; lower values indicate better fuel efficiency.
-
Meter/fluid ounce (US)
-
A unit measuring the distance in meters traveled for each US fluid ounce of fuel consumed; effectively distance per volume in small US fluid ounce quantities.
-
Fuel Consumption
-
The amount of fuel used by an engine or vehicle to cover a specific distance.
