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.
Nautical Mile/gallon (Us)
Nautical mile per gallon (US) is a unit of fuel efficiency measuring the distance traveled in nautical miles per gallon of fuel consumed.
History/Origin
The unit originated from maritime and aviation contexts where nautical miles are standard for navigation, and it has been used primarily in the United States to assess fuel consumption of ships and aircraft.
Current Use
Currently, this unit is used in specialized maritime and aeronautical industries within the US to evaluate fuel efficiency, though it is less common than other units like miles per gallon or liters per 100 kilometers.
