What are Gram-force Meter and British thermal unit IT

A gram-force meter (gf·m) is a unit of work or energy in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system. It represents the work done by a force of one gram-force acting over a one meter distance. In physics, it's used to quantify the energy expended when a gram-force is applied through a meter's length.

The British thermal unit (IT) or Btu(IT) is a traditional unit of heat; it is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. It is used in the power, steam generation, heating, and air conditioning industries.

History of Gram-force Meter and British thermal unit IT

The Gram-force Meter to British thermal unit IT conversion is rooted in the transition from the CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system to the more widely used British and later the International System of Units (SI). This conversion is essential for industries that require precise energy measurements for thermal energy calculations.
