Fuel Consumption

Calculates consumption by given fuel level and speed:

Consumption per time (minute/sec/hour)
Consumption per distance (km/mile/nautical mile/meter)
Remain distance (km)
Remain time (minute/sec/hour)

Inputs:

Fuel (L) -- Current total fuel level (in fuel litres or battery percents). Connect to you tanks, fuel meter or battery.
Speed -- Current vehicle speed (directional recommended); by default - in m/s. Connect to speed sensor.

Outputs:

Remain Distance -- Remain distance to run with current speed and fuel level (by default - in kilometers).
For example, if 10 then you can run only 10 kilometers with current speed and fuel level.

Remain Time -- Remain time to run with current speed and fuel level (by default - in minutes)
For example, if 10 then you can run only 10 minutes with current speed and fuel level.

Consumption (per distance) -- How many litres consumed in distance (by default - in one kilometer)
For example, if 10 then at current speed 10 litres will be burned in each kilometer.

Consumption (per time) -- How many litres consumed in time (by default - in one minute)
For example, if 10 then at current speed 10 litres will be burned in each minute.

Properties:

* You can use default properties as well

Given speed [m/s, km/h] - what metric you will input to `Speed`. default: m/s

Remain time [hours, minutes, sec] - what metric you will receive from `Remain Time` output. default: minutes

Consumption per distance [km, nautical mine, mile, meter] - what metric you will receive from `Remain Distance` output. default: km

Consumption per time [hour, minute, sec] - what metric you will receive from `Remain Time` output. default: minutes

Recalculate period [in seconds] - how often will consumption be recalculated. default: 5 sec
a high value (low recalculate rate) will make the readings stable, but rarely updated. A low value (high recalculate rate) will make the readings unstable and useless. It is recommended to use 5 seconds for normal purposes, and a maximum of 15 for an unstable environment.

Also you can use another version of this microcontrolle, that uses COMPOSITE output, has size 1x3, and highly usefull with "Instrument block".
