Nautical Mile/liter
A nautical mile per liter (n.mile/L) is a unit of fuel consumption measuring the number of nautical miles traveled per liter of fuel used.
History/Origin
The nautical mile has been used historically in maritime and aviation contexts, originating from the Earth's geometry, while liters are a metric unit of volume. The combination as a fuel consumption unit is a modern adaptation for specialized navigation and transportation industries.
Current Use
This unit is used primarily in maritime and aviation sectors to express fuel efficiency, especially in contexts where nautical miles are the standard distance measurement.
Mile/gallon (Us)
Mile per gallon (US) is a unit of fuel efficiency representing the number of miles a vehicle can travel on one US gallon of fuel.
History/Origin
The MPG (US) unit has been used in the United States since the early 20th century to measure vehicle fuel efficiency, becoming a standard metric for consumers and manufacturers to compare vehicle performance.
Current Use
Today, MPG (US) remains a common measure of fuel economy for vehicles in the United States, used in vehicle specifications, fuel economy ratings, and environmental assessments within the 'Fuel Consumption' converter under the 'Common Converters' category.
