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.


Millijoule

A millijoule (mJ) is a unit of energy equal to one thousandth of a joule, where 1 joule equals 1 newton meter or 1 kg·m²/s².

History/Origin

The millijoule is derived from the SI base unit joule, with the prefix 'milli' indicating a factor of 10⁻³. It has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure small amounts of energy, especially in fields like electronics and biomechanics.

Current Use

The millijoule is commonly used today to quantify small energy quantities in electronics, biomedical applications, and energy measurements where precision at a small scale is required.
