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.

About International table BTU per cubic foot

The international table BTU per cubic foot (BTU(IT)/ft³) equals 1055.05585262 J / (0.3048)³ m³ ≈ 37258.95 J/m³. Standard in US and Canadian gas industry for expressing the gross calorific value of natural gas as distributed (pipeline quality gas ≈ 1000 BTU/ft³). 1 BTU(IT)/ft³ ≈ 37.26 kJ/m³ ≈ 10.35 Wh/m³.
