“单位消耗量”常见的英文表达是 "unit consumption" 或 "per-unit consumption"。
unit consumption:是最常用的表达,简洁明了,直接对应“单位消耗量”的概念。
per-unit consumption:更加强调“每单位”的含义,在需要特别突出“每单位”这一概念的语境中可以使用。
例如:
We need to calculate the unit consumption of this raw material in the production process.(我们需要计算生产过程中这种原材料的单位消耗量。 )
The per-unit consumption of energy in this factory has decreased significantly after adopting new technologies.(采用新技术后,这家工厂的单位能耗显著降低。 )
