Convert therm (US) to nanojoule
Please provide values below to convert therm (US) [thm (US)] to nanojoule [nJ], or Convert nanojoule to therm (US).
1 thm (US) = 1.0548e+17 nJ. To convert therm (US) to nanojoule, multiply the value by 1.0548e+17; to go the other way, divide by it (1 nJ = 9.4804e-18 thm (US)). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 thm (US) = 1.0548e+17 nJ
- 1 nJ = 9.4804e-18 thm (US)
- 10 thm (US) = 1.0548e+18 nJ
- 100 thm (US) = 1.0548e+19 nJ
How to Convert Therm (Us) to Nanojoule
1 thm (US) = 1.054804e+17 nJ
Example: convert 15 thm (US) to nJ:
15 thm (US) = 15 × 1.054804e+17 nJ = 1.582206e+18 nJ

Therm (Us)
The therm (US) 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 as a practical unit for billing natural gas, standardizing energy measurement in the United States. It has been widely adopted in the energy industry for commercial and residential gas usage.
Current Use
Today, the therm (US) is still used in the natural gas industry for billing and energy calculations, although it has been largely supplemented by the gigajoule and other SI units in scientific contexts.
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.
