What are Therm and Pound-force Inch

A therm is a non-SI unit of heat energy equal to 100,000 British thermal units (BTU). It is commonly used in the energy sector, especially in natural gas industries, to measure the heat content of fuel. The therm is recognized in natural gas sales in the United Kingdom, the United States, and some other countries that trade natural gas.

The pound-force inch (lbf·in) is a unit of torque in the Imperial and US customary systems of measurement. It represents the torque produced by a one pound-force applied at a radial distance of one inch from the axis of rotation. Torque is a measure of the rotational force applied to an object and is crucial in mechanical and engineering applications to ensure proper function and safety.
