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.
Watt-Second
A watt-second (W·s) is a unit of energy equivalent to one joule, representing the amount of energy transferred or converted when one watt of power is applied for one second.
History/Origin
The watt-second originated from the SI system of units, where the watt (W) is the SI derived unit of power, and the second (s) is the SI base unit of time. It has been used historically in physics and engineering to quantify energy, especially in contexts where energy transfer occurs over short durations.
Current Use
The watt-second is primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure small amounts of energy, such as in electrical and mechanical systems. It is often replaced by the joule in modern applications but remains a recognized unit within the energy converter category.
