Discover the ease of converting therm units to attojoules with our intuitive Therm to Attojoule Converter, designed by Newtum to enhance your calculations.
A therm is a non-SI unit of heat energy commonly used in the natural gas industry. It's equivalent to 100,000 British thermal units (BTU) or approximately 105.5 megajoules. The therm is most often used in the context of natural gas and heating fuels, providing a standardized measure for billing and comparison to other energy sources.
Definition of AttojouleAn attojoule is an extremely small unit of energy in the metric system, represented as 10^-18 joules. It's part of the SI unit system, which utilises prefixes to denote various scales. The attojoule is commonly used in the fields of particle physics, quantum mechanics, and electromagnetism where minute energy exchanges are significant.

1 therm = 1.05506×10^18 attojoules
1 attojoule = 9.47817×10^-19 therms
Example 1:
Convert 2 therms to attojoules:
2 therms = 2 × 1.05506 × 10^18 aJ = 2.11012 × 10^18 aJ
Example 2:
Convert 5 therms to attojoules:
5 therms = 5 × 1.05506 × 10^18 aJ = 5.2753 × 10^18 aJ
The Therm to Attojoule Converter is a tool that reflects both historical and modern measurement systems. The therm, with roots in the British thermal unit from the 19th century, and the attojoule, a product of the metric system, combine to provide a bridge between energy units of vastly different scales. This tool is vital for precise scientific and engineering calculations.
Understanding the practical applications of the Therm to Attojoule Converter unveils its significance in various fields.
Example 1:
To convert 0.5 therms to attojoules:
0.5 th = 0.5 × 1.05506 × 10^18 aJ = 5.2753 × 10^17 aJ
Example 2:
To convert 1.5 therms to attojoules:
1.5 th = 1.5 × 1.05506 × 10^18 aJ = 1.58259 × 10^18 aJ
