Gallon (Uk)/100 Mi
A unit of fuel consumption measurement representing the number of gallons (UK) used per 100 miles traveled.
History/Origin
The gallon (UK), also known as the imperial gallon, has been used in the United Kingdom for measuring fuel consumption, with the 'per 100 miles' metric adopted for easier comparison. It has historical roots in the imperial measurement system, which was standardized in the 19th century.
Current Use
This unit is primarily used in the UK and some other countries that employ the imperial system to express vehicle fuel efficiency, indicating how many UK gallons are consumed to travel 100 miles.
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.
