Convert nanojoule to therm
Please provide values below to convert nanojoule [nJ] to therm [thm], or Convert therm to nanojoule.
1 nJ = 9.4782e-18 thm. To convert nanojoule to therm, multiply the value by 9.4782e-18; to go the other way, divide by it (1 thm = 1.0551e+17 nJ). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 nJ = 9.4782e-18 thm
- 1 thm = 1.0551e+17 nJ
- 10 nJ = 9.4782e-17 thm
- 100 nJ = 9.4782e-16 thm
How to Convert Nanojoule to Therm
1 nJ = 9.47816987913438e-18 thm

Nanojoule
A nanojoule (nJ) is a unit of energy equal to one billionth (10^-9) of a joule.
History/Origin
The nanojoule was introduced as part of the SI unit system to measure very small amounts of energy, especially in scientific and technological contexts, with its usage becoming more common with advancements in nanotechnology and micro-scale energy measurements.
Current Use
Nanojoules are used in fields such as electronics, nanotechnology, and physics to quantify small energy quantities, including in the measurement of energy consumption in micro- and nano-scale devices.
Therm
A therm is a unit of energy used primarily to measure natural gas consumption, equivalent to 100,000 British thermal units (BTUs).
History/Origin
The therm was introduced in the early 20th century by the American Gas Association to standardize natural gas billing and measurement; it became widely adopted in North America for energy calculations.
Current Use
Today, the therm is still used in the natural gas industry for billing and energy measurement, although other units like gigajoules and cubic meters are also common globally.
