Kilo BTU
A kiloBritish Thermal Unit (kBTU) is a unit of heat energy equal to 1,000 British Thermal Units (BTUs). One kBTU represents the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1,000 pounds of water by one degree Fahrenheit. This unit is commonly used in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry to quantify the heating and cooling capacities of larger systems and equipment. It is also used in energy management and building energy performance assessments to evaluate and compare the energy usage and efficiency of different systems and buildings.
Kilojoules
A Kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 joules. It is commonly used to measure energy in various scientific and engineering contexts, as well as in nutrition to quantify the energy content of foods. One kilojoule is the amount of energy required to apply a force of one newton over a distance of one kilometer, or the energy transferred when one kilowatt of power is applied for one second. Kilojoules are used in fields such as physics, chemistry, and engineering to quantify work, heat, and energy, providing a standard measure for comparing energy content and transfer across different systems and processes.
