Btu (It)

The Btu (IT) is a unit of energy used to measure the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit, based on the International Table (IT) standards.

History/Origin

The Btu (IT) originated from the British thermal unit, adapted for international standards to provide a consistent measurement of heat energy, particularly in engineering and thermodynamics contexts.

Current Use

The Btu (IT) is primarily used in the energy industry, including heating, cooling, and power generation, to quantify energy content and efficiency in systems adhering to international standards.

Gigajoule

A gigajoule (GJ) is a unit of energy equal to one billion joules, used to measure large amounts of energy such as in power generation and fuel consumption.

History/Origin

The gigajoule was introduced as part of the International System of Units (SI) to provide a standard measure for large-scale energy quantities, especially in scientific and industrial contexts, gaining prominence in the 20th century.

Current Use

Gigajoules are commonly used today to quantify energy in fields like energy production, consumption, and engineering, particularly for large-scale systems such as power plants, fuel storage, and energy audits.
