What are Therm and Calorie

Definition of Therm

A 'Therm' is a unit of heat energy equivalent to 100,000 British Thermal Units (BTUs). It is commonly used in heating and fuel industries to measure the energy content of natural gas. In thermodynamics, the term is used to quantify large amounts of heat energy transfer. The Therm can also be related to other energy units such as joules, with one Therm being approximately 105.5 megajoules.

Definition of Calorie

A 'Calorie' is a unit of energy often used in nutrition to quantify the energy content in food. The small calorie or gram calorie (symbol: cal) is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. However, in dietary contexts, the term usually refers to the kilocalorie (symbol: kcal), which is equivalent to 1,000 small calories. This is the energy required to heat one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius.
