In more detail, the result is obtained:

Fuel needed = Distance / Car fuel consumption = miles * 4.54609 / carConsumtion = 56.78 mi * 4.54609 / 37.5 mpg = 6.9 liters

Fuel needed = 6.9 lt

Fuel cost = Fuel needed x Price per liter = 6.9 liters x 144 pence per liter = 9.9 £

Fuel cost from Kirklees to Preston = 9.9 £

 

Air conditioning (AC) can affect automotive fuel consumption for the following reasons:

Engine Load: The engine compressor works harder to cool and circulate air when the AC is on. In city driving or when idling, this added workload might increase engine fuel consumption.

At high speeds, running the AC increases aerodynamic drag. This makes the engine work harder to maintain speed, increasing fuel consumption.

Accessory Load: When the AC is running, the blower fan and condenser fan also use engine power. Fuel consumption increases as the engine's electrical load grows.

Driving circumstances: AC affects fuel usage differently based on driving circumstances. AC use in stop-and-go traffic or at lower speeds may have a greater impact on fuel usage than highway travel.

Efficiency Settings: "Eco" mode or variable AC compressor speeds can minimize AC's fuel usage in some autos. These features improve fuel efficiency and interior cooling.

AC use might raise fuel consumption, but it's typically worth it for comfort, especially in hot weather. However, using the car's ventilation system or rolling down windows at lower speeds helps reduce AC usage and fuel consumption.
