What are Erg and Btu

Definition of Erg

An erg is a unit of energy or work in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, which is a metric system of physical units. It is defined as the amount of work done by a force of one dyne exerted over a distance of one centimeter. The erg is a relatively small unit of energy, often used in physics and engineering to measure small-scale energy transfers. Its name derives from the Greek word 'ergon,' meaning work, and it plays a crucial role in understanding energy transformations in various scientific applications.

Definition of Btu

A British thermal unit (Btu) is a traditional unit of heat that measures the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. It is part of the Imperial system, primarily used in the United States. The Btu is a crucial unit in heating and cooling systems, including air conditioning and refrigeration. It allows for the quantification of heat energy, facilitating the design and assessment of heating and cooling loads in building systems, thus proving essential in energy management and engineering.
