Btu
The British Thermal Unit (Btu) is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. It is primarily used in the United States to describe the energy content of fuels and the power of heating and cooling systems.
Kilojoules
A kilojoule (kJ) is equivalent to one thousand joules (J). It is the energy required when a force of one thousand newtons is applied over a distance of one meter, or one newton applied over a kilometer. In reality, a joule is roughly the energy required to lift a small apple one meter against Earth's gravity.
