About International table calorie per cubic centimetre
The international table calorie per cubic centimetre (cal(IT)/cm³) equals exactly 4.1868 × 10⁶ J/m³ (1 cal(IT) = 4.1868 J; 1 cm³ = 10⁻⁶ m³). The IT variant of the cal/cm³ used in steam-table-based thermodynamics and older international standards. Numerically equal to kcal(IT)/L. 1 cal(IT)/cm³ = 4.1868 MJ/m³.
About Kilojoule per litre
The kilojoule per litre (kJ/L) equals exactly 10⁶ J/m³ = 1 MJ/m³ (since 1 L = 10⁻³ m³). The preferred notation in fuel chemistry and food science for volumetric energy content. Gasoline ≈ 34.2 MJ/L, diesel ≈ 35.8 MJ/L, ethanol ≈ 23.4 MJ/L, LPG ≈ 25.5 MJ/L. 1 kJ/L = 1 MJ/m³ = 10⁶ J/m³.
