What are Btu and Millijoule

Definition of Btu

A British Thermal Unit (Btu) is a unit of energy used primarily in the power industry. It represents the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. Despite its roots in the Imperial measurement system, it is widely used in the United States to measure heat output from fuels, air conditioning units, and other heating systems. Understanding Btu is crucial for professionals working with energy metrics, as it provides a standard benchmark for heat and energy calculations.

Definition of Millijoule

A millijoule (mJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI) and is equal to one-thousandth of a joule. It is used to quantify small amounts of energy, particularly in fields such as physics and engineering where precise measurements are necessary. The millijoule is an essential component in scientific calculations, allowing researchers and professionals to measure and compare energy levels accurately. As a derivative of the joule, it maintains the same principles of energy measurement while offering a smaller scale for ease of use in specific applications.
