What does microjoule measure?

Microjoule measures very small quantities of energy, such as electrical, optical, or mechanical energy at micro scales.

Btu (th) stands for thermochemical British thermal unit, a heat energy unit based on raising one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit.

Why convert microjoules to Btu (th)?

Converting helps relate precise scientific energy measurements to traditional thermal units used in heating and fuel applications.
