convertimate Fuel consumption

Grams per kilowatt-hour to pounds per horsepower-hour

Type a value in g/kWh to get it in lb/hp·h instantly.

0.3288lb/hp·h

That's 1.03× as thirsty as a truck diesel, while a car diesel is 1.15× thirstier. That is a thermal efficiency of about 42.06%.

What it means

How thirsty is that engine?

Efficiency figures assume diesel at 42.8 MJ/kg. Gasoline holds about 44 MJ/kg and hydrogen 120, so the same g/kWh means different efficiencies for each.

The math

How to convert g/kWh to lb/hp·h

To convert grams per kilowatt-hour to pounds per horsepower-hour, multiply by 0.00164399.

Example: 200 g/kWh × 0.00164399 = 0.328797 lb/hp·h.

In the other direction, 1 lb/hp·h = 608.277 g/kWh.
