What does liter per joule (L/J) measure?

Liter per joule (L/J) measures the volume of fuel in liters required to produce one joule of energy. It is commonly used to convert energy demand into fuel volume.

Why convert L/J to cubic meter per joule (m³/J)?

Converting L/J to m³/J allows for comparing and designing energy systems that use different fuel types, from liquids to gases, by translating volume-energy units at different scales.

Does the conversion account for fuel density differences?

No, the conversion does not directly account for differences in fuel density or energy content variations due to purity or state; these factors must be considered separately.
