The energy content of ethanol is 76,100 BTU/US gal (5.89 kilowatt-hours per litre), compared to 114,100 BTU/US gal (8.83 kWh/L) for gasoline. (see chart above) A flex-fuel vehicle will experience about 76% of the fuel mileage MPG when using E85 (85% ethanol) products as compared to 100% gasoline.
The U.S. uses the pre-1824 gallon (231 cubic inches, 3,790 cm 3) and Winchester bushel (2,150.42 cubic inches, 35,239.1 cm 3), as opposed to British 1824 definition of 1 imperial gallon (4.5 L; 1.2 US gal) = 10 lb (4.5 kg) of water and the bushel as 8 imperial gallons (36 L; 9.6 US gal).
= 8 imperial gallons = 4 imperial pecks = 36.368 72 litres: ≈ 8.25645 US dry gallons ≈ 9.60760 US fluid gallons ≈ 2 219.36 cubic inches: ≈ 1.284 35 cubic feet 1 US bushel [6] = 8 US dry gallons = 4 US pecks = 2 150.42 cubic inches = 1.244 46 cubic feet = 35.239 070 166 88 litres ≈ 9.3092 US fluid gallons ≈ 7.7515 imperial gallons
Wine was measured with units based on the wine gallon of 231 cubic inches (3.785 L), beer was measured with units based on an ale gallon of 282 cubic inches (4.621 L) and grain was measured with the Winchester measure with a gallon of approximately 268.8 cubic inches (one eighth of a Winchester bushel or 4.405 L). In 1824, these units were ...
In the example provided by the US DoE in its final rule, an electric car with an energy consumption of 265 Watt hour per mile in urban driving, and 220 Watt hour per mile in highway driving, results in a petroleum-equivalent fuel economy of 335.24 miles per gallon, based on a driving schedule factor of 55 percent urban, and 45 percent highway ...

The area required to calculate the volumetric flow rate is real or imaginary, flat or curved, either as a cross-sectional area or a surface. The vector area is a combination of the magnitude of the area through which the volume passes through, A , and a unit vector normal to the area, n ^ {\displaystyle {\hat {\mathbf {n} }}} .
