Discover the simplicity of converting calories to kiloliters of fuel oil equivalent with our intuitive tool, designed by Newtum to satisfy your conversion curiosity.

What are Calorie and Kiloliter

Definition of Calorie

A Calorie, often with the symbol 'cal', is a unit of energy defined as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius (or one Kelvin) at a pressure of one atmosphere. The Calorie is commonly used in the field of chemistry and nutrition to express the energy content of foods, and should not be confused with the kilocalorie (kcal), which is often referred to as a Calorie in dietary contexts.

Definition of Kiloliter

A Kiloliter (kl) is a unit of volume equivalent to one thousand liters. It is a metric unit that is commonly used to measure liquids or substances that can flow. For example, water, fuel, and other chemicals are often quantified in kiloliters in various industrial and commercial contexts. The size of a kiloliter is substantial, equivalent to a cube with each side measuring one meter, making it a convenient measure for large quantities.

Conversion of Calorie to Kiloliter

1 cal = 0.00000116 kl
1 kl = 862,000 cal

Example 1:
Convert 200,000 cal to kl:
200,000 cal = 200,000 × 0.00000116 kl = 0.232 kl

Example 2:
Convert 1,000,000 cal to kl:
1,000,000 cal = 1,000,000 × 0.00000116 kl = 1.16 kl

History of Calorie and Kiloliter
