What are Therm and Nanojoule

Definition of Therm

A Therm is a non-SI unit of heat energy. It is commonly used in the energy sector, particularly in natural gas and heating oil industries. The term originates from the Greek word 'thermos' meaning heat. One Therm is equivalent to 100,000 British Thermal Units (BTU). It is also roughly equal to 105.5 megajoules or 29.307 kilowatt-hours. This unit is used to measure large quantities of energy produced or consumed and is pivotal for understanding energy usage and efficiency.

Definition of Nanojoule

A Nanojoule (nJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI), defined as one billionth of a joule (1 joule = 1 billion nanojoules). The prefix 'nano' denotes a factor of 10^-9. This minute measure of energy is commonly used in physics and engineering to describe energy levels in microscopic systems, such as the kinetic energy of particles in a gas, the energy of photons in light, or in the fields of microelectronics and nanotechnology, where energy transfers occur on a very small scale.
