What Is This Tool?

This unit converter translates fuel efficiency values expressed in pound/horsepower/hour into kilojoule/kilogram [kJ/kg], enabling users to relate fuel mass consumption rates to fuel energy content for performance analysis.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the fuel consumption value in pound/horsepower/hour.
  • Select pound/horsepower/hour as the input unit.
  • Choose kilojoule/kilogram [kJ/kg] as the output unit.
  • Click convert to obtain the equivalent specific energy value.

Key Features

  • Converts mass-specific fuel consumption units to specific energy units.
  • Supports analysis in automotive, aerospace, marine, and industrial sectors.
  • Browser-based and easy to use for quick fuel efficiency assessments.

Examples

  • 2 pound/horsepower/hour equals 11836.7050032 kilojoule/kilogram [kJ/kg].
  • 0.5 pound/horsepower/hour equals 2959.1762508 kilojoule/kilogram [kJ/kg].

Common Use Cases

  • Reporting brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) for piston and automotive engines.
  • Estimating fuel burn and range in aircraft performance planning.
  • Evaluating fuel consumption in industrial generators and marine engines.
  • Assessing fuel calorific values for fuel selection and emission calculations.
  • Comparing specific energy in propellants and working fluids in aerospace.
  • Converting energy density units for storage media and fuels.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure accurate input values for reliable conversion results.
  • Use the tool to compare fuel efficiency across different engine types.
  • Interpret results considering the differences between fuel consumption rate and energy content.
  • Apply conversions to support thermodynamic and fuel quality analyses.

Limitations

  • The units represent different physical quantities and require careful interpretation.
  • Conversion assumes standard conditions and idealized relationships that may not reflect actual engine operation.
  • Accuracy depends on consistent definitions of horsepower and fuel energy content.
