Fuel Oil Equivalent @kiloliter
Fuel oil equivalent (foe) is a unit of energy representing the amount of energy contained in one kiloliter of fuel oil.
History/Origin
The foe has been used historically in energy and fuel industries to quantify large quantities of energy, particularly in the context of oil and energy resource assessments.
Current Use
Today, the foe is primarily used in energy statistics and reports to compare and aggregate energy consumption and production across different sources and regions.
Megaton
A megaton (Mton) is a unit of energy equivalent to one million tons of TNT, commonly used to measure the energy released in nuclear explosions and large-scale explosions.
History/Origin
The megaton originated during the development of nuclear weapons to quantify explosive yield, with the first use in the context of nuclear tests in the mid-20th century. It became a standard measure for describing the destructive power of nuclear devices.
Current Use
Today, the megaton is primarily used to describe the explosive yield of nuclear weapons and large-scale explosions, as well as in scientific research related to energy release and impact assessments.
