Fuel Oil Equivalent @barrel (Us)
Fuel oil equivalent @barrel (US) (foe) is a unit of energy representing the amount of energy contained in one US barrel of fuel oil, used to compare energy content across different fuels.
History/Origin
The foe unit originated in energy and fuel industries to standardize energy measurements, particularly in the context of oil and fuel consumption, and has been used since the mid-20th century for energy accounting and reporting.
Current Use
Today, foe is primarily used in energy statistics, research, and reporting to quantify and compare the energy content of fuel oils and other energy sources in a consistent manner.
Foot-Pound
A foot-pound is a unit of energy or work equal to the work done when a force of one pound-force is exerted over a distance of one foot.
History/Origin
The foot-pound has been used primarily in the United States and the United Kingdom as a customary unit of energy, originating from imperial and US customary measurement systems, before the widespread adoption of the SI system.
Current Use
Today, the foot-pound is still used in certain fields such as engineering, automotive, and aerospace industries in the US for expressing torque and energy, although the SI unit joule is more common internationally.
