Liter/meter
The liter per meter (L/m) is a unit of measurement representing the volume in liters per unit length in meters, typically used to express fuel consumption or flow rate over a distance.
History/Origin
The liter per meter has been used in engineering and fluid dynamics to quantify flow rates and fuel consumption, especially in contexts where volume per unit length is relevant. Its usage became more standardized with the adoption of the metric system in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Current Use
Today, the liter per meter is primarily used in specialized fields such as fuel consumption analysis, pipeline flow measurement, and engineering applications where volume flow per unit length is relevant, within the broader category of common converters.
Gallon (Us)/100 Mi
A measurement of fuel consumption indicating the number of gallons used per 100 miles traveled.
History/Origin
The gallon (US) has been used as a standard unit of volume in the United States since the 19th century, primarily for measuring liquids like fuel. The 'per 100 miles' metric is a common way to express fuel efficiency in the US, especially in automotive contexts.
Current Use
This unit is used in the United States to express fuel consumption, particularly for vehicles, indicating how many gallons of fuel are needed to travel 100 miles.
