Chinese term or phrase: 容积燃油
如果以容积法测量燃油消耗量, 燃油消耗量按公式XXX计算:其中S是车辆试验中设定容积燃油行驶的距离,单位为千米。(除非我理解错了,在这里“容积燃油”是否为每单位容积里包容的燃料,成为了“在单位容积燃油里行驶的距离”,那么用英文我应该怎么说才对呢?)

English translation:travel distance per volume unit of fuel assumption
Explanation:
容积燃油行驶的距离 = travel distance per volume unit (often liter) of fuel assumption, not a type of fuel at all.

fuel of unit volume


Explanation:
"容积燃油"在这里应该理解为“单位容积的燃油”

fuel of unit volume

"S是车辆试验中设定容积燃油行驶的距离"的意思应该可以表达为“S是车辆试验中设定的使用单位容积的燃油所能行使的距离”

不知道这样表达是否准确!for information

(travel distance of set) volume of fuels


Explanation:
不是单位容积,而是设定容积。
设定容积燃油行驶的距离,单位为千米。
