What Is This Tool?
This converter helps transform fuel consumption values expressed as meters traveled per US customary cup of fuel into meters per US liquid pint. It's designed to assist in converting between small volume-based fuel efficiency measurements used in bench tests and portable engine evaluations.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the fuel consumption value in meter/cup (US).
-
Select the source unit as meter/cup (US).
-
Choose the target unit as meter/pint (US) [m/pt (US)].
-
The tool automatically calculates the equivalent value based on the conversion rate.
-
Review and use the converted value for your reporting or analysis.
Key Features
-
Converts distance per US cup fuel usage to distance per US pint.
-
Supports measurement in mixed metric and US customary units.
-
Useful for small engine and portable equipment fuel consumption analysis.
-
Provides easy-to-follow conversion using a fixed rate.
Examples
-
5 Meter/cup (US) equals 10 Meter/pint (US).
-
0.5 Meter/cup (US) converts to 1 Meter/pint (US).
Common Use Cases
-
Bench or laboratory testing of small engines with fuel measured in cups and pints.
-
Evaluating fuel efficiency of portable generators or lawn equipment using US customary units.
-
Converting small-volume fuel consumption data to standardize for mixed unit reporting.
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure accurate input of the meter/cup values for precise conversion.
-
Use the tool to compare fuel economies when fuel volume units vary in scale.
-
Apply conversions primarily for small-volume fuel measurements relevant to bench tests or portable equipment.
Limitations
-
Conversion accuracy depends on the precise definition of US customary cup and pint volumes.
-
Not recommended for large-scale fuel consumption without appropriate scaling adjustments.
-
Small variations in volume sizes could impact conversion results.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does meter/cup (US) measure?
-
Meter/cup (US) quantifies fuel economy as the distance traveled in meters per one US customary cup of fuel.
-
How is meter/pint (US) different from meter/cup (US)?
-
Meter/pint (US) expresses distance per US liquid pint of fuel, which is double the volume of a US customary cup, leading to a conversion factor of 2.
-
When should I use this converter?
-
Use this converter for small engine or portable equipment fuel consumption data when converting between US cup and pint fuel volumes.
Key Terminology
-
Meter/cup (US)
-
A unit expressing distance traveled in meters per one US customary cup of fuel (1 US cup = 236.588 mL).
-
Meter/pint (US) [m/pt (US)]
-
A fuel economy unit indicating meters traveled per US liquid pint of fuel (1 US pint = 0.473176473 L).
-
Conversion Rate
-
The factor used to convert values from meter/cup (US) to meter/pint (US), which is 2.
