About Megajoule per cubic metre
The megajoule per cubic metre (MJ/m³) equals exactly 10⁶ J/m³. The practical SI unit for fuel energy density: natural gas ≈ 35-40 MJ/m³, hydrogen (liquid) ≈ 8490 MJ/m³, diesel ≈ 34,200 MJ/m³. Numerically equal to kJ/L and widely used in fuel standards and energy audits. 1 MJ/m³ = 10⁶ J/m³ = 1 kJ/L.
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.
