What does calorie (IT)/cubic centimeter measure?

It measures the amount of energy contained in one cubic centimeter of material, representing volumetric energy density.

Why is gallon (US)/horsepower important?

It expresses the volume of fuel consumed relative to mechanical power output, helping analyze fuel efficiency in engines.

Can I use this conversion directly for fuel consumption over time?

This unit typically includes a time basis which is not explicitly part of the conversion here, so further context is needed for time-based consumption.

Consider fuel type and engine design for practical application of the results
Use this conversion as part of broader performance and efficiency analysis
Verify assumptions about steady conditions when applying conversion values
Combine with additional parameters for detailed engineering calculations

Limitations

The converted unit usually assumes a time basis (e.g., gallons per horsepower-hour) which is not included here
Real-world variations due to fuel type and combustion efficiency are not accounted for
This conversion links energy density to volumetric fuel consumption which may need other factors for precise use
Direct conversion assumes steady-state conditions and specific contexts
Not suitable for direct fuel efficiency measurements without supplementary data
