What's the expense of traveling from Sheffield to Hillingdon by car?

Embarking on the journey from Sheffield to Hillingdon, one might ponder the cost of such a venture. Indeed, the expenditure amounts to 27.7 pounds when fueled by petrol. In this calculation, we delve into the intricate details, where the price of petrol stands at 143 pence per liter, and the car's thirst for fuel measures 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those opting for carpooling, the financial burden lightens, with a cost of 13.85 pounds for each of two passengers, 9.23 pounds for three passengers, and merely 6.93 pounds for four passengers.

Delving deeper into the mechanics of the calculation, we ascertain the amount of fuel required for the voyage. Covering a distance of approximately 159.74 miles, the car craves around 19.4 liters of petrol. This value is derived from the division of the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate, converted into liters for precision.

With the quantity of fuel determined, we proceed to compute the total expenditure. By multiplying the fuel volume (19.4 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence), we seamlessly arrive at the grand total of 27.7 pounds. Thus, the journey from Sheffield to Hillingdon is marked by a fuel cost of 27.7 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Sheffield to Hillingdon.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 17.5 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 8.75 £ (17.5/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 5.83 £ (17.5/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 4.38 £ (17.5/4) /p.

When comparing diesel fuel and petrol (gasoline) fuel in terms of octane rating, there's a significant distinction:

  1. Petrol:

    • Petrol typically has an octane rating ranging from 87 to 95 in most markets.

    • Octane rating measures the fuel's resistance to premature detonation or knocking in spark-ignition engines.

    • Higher octane ratings are crucial for high-performance petrol engines with higher compression ratios or turbocharging, as they help prevent engine knocking and allow for more efficient combustion.

  2. Diesel Fuel:

    • Diesel fuel doesn't have an octane rating in the same sense as petrol because it's not used in spark-ignition engines.

    • Diesel engines rely on compression ignition rather than spark ignition, meaning the fuel-air mixture ignites spontaneously due to high pressure and temperature.

    • Therefore, diesel fuel is designed to ignite under the high compression conditions found in diesel engines, and its properties are optimized for this type of combustion rather than for octane rating.

In essence, while petrol relies on octane rating to ensure proper combustion in spark-ignition engines, diesel fuel is formulated to ignite under the high-pressure conditions of compression ignition in diesel engines, rendering octane rating irrelevant for diesel fuel.
