Conversion Formula

kJ/m³ = kJ/L × 1000

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 Kilojoule per cubic metre

The kilojoule per cubic metre (kJ/m³) equals exactly 1000 J/m³. Common in gas industry and HVAC for expressing the volumetric heating value of fuel gases: natural gas ~35-38 MJ/m³, biogas ~20-25 MJ/m³, hydrogen ~10.8 MJ/m³ (standard conditions). 1 kJ/m³ = 1000 J/m³ = 1 Wh/(277.8 m³).
