Fuel consumption rate
A fuel consumption rate is a value that represents how much fuel
an engine consumes to perform certain work.
Fuel consumption rate is generally expressed in grams per
horsepower per hour in units of g/PS·h. In SI units, this
becomes g/kW·h.
Accordingly, the smaller this value is for an engine the more
economical the engine is, and the better it can be said to
perform.
Generally, this value is smallest near maximum torque.
