What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms fuel consumption readings expressed in meter/cup (UK), reflecting the distance traveled per UK cup of fuel, into kilometer/liter (km/L), a common unit showing how many kilometers a vehicle travels per liter of fuel.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the fuel consumption value in meter/cup (UK).
-
Select the corresponding units for input and output if required.
-
Click convert to get the equivalent fuel consumption in kilometer per liter (km/L).
Key Features
-
Converts from meter/cup (UK), an informal or experimental fuel efficiency unit, to kilometer/liter (km/L), a standard industry measure.
-
Uses UK cup volume (~284.13 mL) to relate small volume fuel use to larger conventional units.
-
Supports automotive engineering, small engine testing, classroom demonstrations, and consumer comparisons.
Examples
-
10 Meter/cup (UK) is equal to 0.035195008 km/L.
-
100 Meter/cup (UK) converts to 0.35195008 km/L.
Common Use Cases
-
Describing the range of small engines or portable generators in meters per UK cup of fuel using an accessible volume unit.
-
Conducting classroom experiments where fuel efficiency is expressed per a small, easy-to-measure volume unit.
-
Translating informal or experimental fuel consumption data into standard km/L units for meaningful comparison.
Tips & Best Practices
-
Use this converter for small-scale or experimental fuel consumption data rather than formal reporting.
-
Ensure measuring equipment uses the UK cup volume (~284.13 mL) for accurate results.
-
Verify consistency in fuel density measurements when interpreting results.
Limitations
-
Meter/cup (UK) is not a standardized unit, relying on an approximate UK cup volume which may affect precision.
-
This unit suits informal or experimental scenarios more than official fuel economy declarations.
-
Conversion assumes stable fuel density and measurement accuracy that may not hold in all practical settings.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does meter/cup (UK) measure?
-
Meter/cup (UK) expresses how many meters are traveled per UK cup of fuel consumed, representing distance per volume fuel use.
-
Why convert meter/cup (UK) to km/L?
-
Converting meter/cup (UK) to kilometer/liter allows comparison of experimental or informal fuel efficiency data with standard industry vehicle ratings.
-
Is meter/cup (UK) a standard fuel economy unit?
-
No, it is an informal unit mainly used in small-scale experiments and is not standardized for formal fuel consumption reporting.
Key Terminology
-
Meter/cup (UK)
-
A non-standard fuel consumption unit measuring distance in meters per UK cup (~284.13 mL) of fuel used.
-
Kilometer/liter (km/L)
-
A common fuel economy measurement indicating how many kilometers a vehicle can travel per liter of fuel.
-
UK cup
-
A volume measurement of approximately 284.13 milliliters used in the meter/cup (UK) unit.
