What are Therm and Kiloton

Definition of Therm

A therm is a non-SI unit of heat energy. It is defined as exactly 100,000 British thermal units (BTU). It is commonly used in the energy sector, particularly in natural gas and heating industries, to measure the amount of heat energy that is produced by burning one therm's worth of gas.

Definition of Kiloton

A kiloton is a unit of energy equivalent to the explosive energy released by 1,000 tons of TNT. It is often used to describe the energy output in nuclear explosions or the energy equivalent of large amounts of explosive material. Kiloton can also be a measure in energy discussions, equivalent to 4.184 terajoules.
