Convert microjoule to therm
Please provide values below to convert microjoule [µJ] to therm [thm], or Convert therm to microjoule.
1 µJ = 9.4782e-15 thm. To convert microjoule to therm, multiply the value by 9.4782e-15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 thm = 1.0551e+14 µJ). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 µJ = 9.4782e-15 thm
- 1 thm = 1.0551e+14 µJ
- 10 µJ = 9.4782e-14 thm
- 100 µJ = 9.4782e-13 thm
How to Convert Microjoule to Therm
1 µJ = 9.47816987913438e-15 thm

Microjoule
A microjoule (µJ) is a unit of energy equal to one millionth of a joule, used to measure small amounts of energy.
History/Origin
The microjoule was introduced as part of the metric system to facilitate the measurement of very small energy quantities, especially in scientific and engineering contexts, with the adoption of the International System of Units (SI).
Current Use
Microjoules are commonly used in fields such as electronics, physics, and biology to quantify small energy transfers, signals, or reactions, often in research and technical applications.
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.
