Meter/fluid Ounce (Us)
The meter per fluid ounce (US) is a unit of fuel consumption measuring the distance traveled per US fluid ounce of fuel used.
History/Origin
This unit originated from the need to quantify fuel efficiency in terms of distance per volume, particularly in the United States, where fluid ounces are commonly used for measuring fuel. It is a specialized unit used mainly in fuel consumption calculations and conversions.
Current Use
The meter per fluid ounce (US) is primarily used in fuel efficiency conversions and comparisons, especially in contexts where US customary units are preferred. It is utilized in automotive and energy industries for measuring and converting fuel consumption rates.
Hectometer/liter
A hectometer per liter (hm/L) is a unit of fuel consumption measurement representing the number of hectometers traveled per liter of fuel used.
History/Origin
The hectometer, as a metric unit of length, was introduced with the metric system in the 19th century. The combination with liters for fuel consumption is a less common, regional unit used primarily in some European contexts, but it has not been widely adopted internationally.
Current Use
The hm/L unit is rarely used in modern contexts; it may appear in specific regional or historical data related to fuel efficiency, but most countries now prefer units like liters per 100 kilometers (L/100km) or miles per gallon (mpg).
