I also didn't know the answer to this question, but I did some searching, mostly through wikipedia, and it seems the warp speeds in the first series were of inconsistent speeds and so a Cochrane or Chi factor was made up, which was something you'd factor in the equation to represent the density of mass in the area.  However, from The Next Generation on, they apparently used the graph I linked to below.  On the left you'll see lightyears and on the bottom you'll see the warp speeds.  That should help for Star Trek at least.

Star Trek Judgment Rites Playthrough 14 :...

Join Captain Kirk and company in Star Trek Judgment Rites, an exciting adventure game from Interplay (1993)! This game, the immediate sequel to Star Trek: 25th Anniversary, constitute the 'unofficial' fourth season, according to the game manual. Two versions of this game were released, the first on floppy disk, and the second on CD with full voice acting from the cast of Star Trek. These two games mark the last time the cast portrayed their original Star Trek characters together. Judgment Rites features the last time DeForrest Kelley ever portrayed Dr. Leonard 'Bones' McCoy. The game is episodic in nature, broken into eight 'missions', or episodes. In Star Trek Judgment Rites, some are independent of each other, but others constitute an over-arching story 'arc', with the last two missions back-to-back as a two-part episode. The whole thing has great production values for its time, at the height of this style of graphical 'adventure' game, and the voice acting from the cast really makes it slick and memorable. It really feels like a season of Star Trek, complete with Shatner totally phoning it in. I tried to do these episodes as expeditiously as possible while elaborating on most of the reasonings behind the actions. The game has much more content than is shown, and much more dialogue. Add &fmt=18 for high quality.
