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.
Megajoules
A Megajoule (MJ) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000,000 joules. It is commonly used to measure large quantities of energy in various scientific, engineering, and industrial contexts. One megajoule represents the amount of energy required to apply a force of one newton over a distance of one million meters, or the energy transferred when one megawatt of power is applied for one second. Megajoules are often used to quantify the energy content of fuels, the work done by large machines, and the energy used or produced in industrial processes, providing a standard measure for comparing significant energy transfers and consumption.
