What are Btu and Attowatt

Definition of Btu

A British Thermal Unit (Btu) is a traditional unit of heat defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. Primarily used in the United States, it is a measure of the energy content in fuels and is also used in power, steam generation, heating, and air conditioning industries. The Btu is part of the foot-pound-second (FPS) system and is commonly used to describe the power of heating and cooling systems, such as furnaces and air conditioners.

Definition of Attowatt

An Attowatt (aW) is an SI unit of power equivalent to 10^-18 watts. It represents an extremely small measure of power, often used in scientific fields that deal with minuscule levels of energy output or consumption. While not commonly encountered in everyday applications, the attowatt is crucial in high-precision fields like quantum physics and nanotechnology, where researchers study phenomena at atomic or subatomic levels. This unit enables scientists to quantify and analyze minute changes in energy that occur in highly controlled environments.
