In performance calculations, airliner manufacturers use a density of jet fuel around 0.80 kg/L (6.7 lb/US gal; 8 lb/imp gal). Specific cases are: Bombardier Aerospace: The Challenger Multi-role Aircraft is a special mission variant of the Bombardier Challenger 650 business jet platform. Bombardier bases performance on the use of fuel with an ...
Fuel consumption monitor from a 2006 Honda Airwave.The displayed fuel economy is 18.1 km/L (5.5 L/100 km; 43 mpg ‑US). A Briggs and Stratton Flyer from 1916. Originally an experiment in creating a fuel-saving automobile in the United States, the vehicle weighed only 135 lb (61.2 kg) and was an adaptation of a small gasoline engine originally designed to power a bicycle.
A 1 inch tall uranium fuel pellet is equivalent to about 1 ton of coal, 120 gallons of crude oil, or 17,000 cubic feet of natural gas. [15] In light-water reactors , 1 kg of natural uranium – following a corresponding enrichment and used for power generation– is equivalent to the energy content of nearly 10,000 kg of mineral oil or 14,000 ...
Seawater, or sea water, is water from a sea or ocean.On average, seawater in the world's oceans has a salinity of about 3.5% (35 g/L, 35 ppt, 600 mM). This means that every kilogram (roughly one liter by volume) of seawater has approximately 35 grams (1.2 oz) of dissolved salts (predominantly sodium (Na +
In the United States, the typical water consumption per capita, at home, is 69.3 US gallons (262 L; 57.7 imp gal) of water per day. [9] [10] Of this, only 1% of the water provided by public water suppliers is for drinking and cooking. [11] Uses include (in decreasing order) toilets, washing machines, showers, baths, faucets, and leaks.
The Volkswagen XL1 plug-in diesel-electric hybrid was available only in Europe and its 5.5 kWh lithium-ion battery delivered an all-electric range of 50 km (31 mi), [3] had a fuel economy of 0.9 L/100 km (310 mpg ‑imp) under the NEDC cycle and produced emissions of 21 g/km of CO 2. [8] The XL1 was released to retail customers in Germany in ...
The car has a fuel tank of 13.2 US gallons (50 L; 11.0 imp gal) and an 8.8 kWh (32 MJ) battery, which together enable a range of 480 miles (770 km). [40]
Due to the long-gearing allowed by the engine, it provides fuel economy at a United States Environmental Protection Agency-rated 12 mpg ‑US (20 L/100 km; 14 mpg ‑imp) in the city and 20 mpg ‑US (12 L/100 km; 24 mpg ‑imp) on the highway. [15] The body is a tubular steel frame with resin transfer molding (RTM) fiberglass panels.
