What does calorie (IT)/cubic centimeter measure?

It measures the energy contained in one cubic centimeter of a material using the International Table calorie, reflecting volumetric energy density relevant to fuels.

Why convert calorie (IT)/cc to kilocalorie (IT)/m³?

To translate energy density measurements from a liquid fuel context to gaseous fuel contexts for better comparison, billing, and system design.

Does the conversion factor change with fuel type?

No, the conversion uses a fixed rate of 1 calorie (IT)/cc equals 1000 kilocalorie (IT)/m³, but interpretation can vary due to fuel phase differences.
