About Converting US therms to Nanojoules
US therm and Nanojoule both measure energy, and the conversion is especially useful for comparing nutrition labels (kilocalories) against scientific energy figures (joules). Specifically: US therm used for natural gas energy, and nanojoule is 1e-9 joule units.
Formula
nanojoules = us therms × 1.054804e+17
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 us therm equals 105480400 base units, and 1 nanojoule equals 1e-9 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct us therm-to-nanojoule factor of 1.054804e+17.
Simple example
1 therm × 1.054804e+17 = 1.054804e+17 nJ
1 us therm = 1.054804e+17 nanojoules.
Real-world example
100 therm × 1.054804e+17 = 1.054804e+19 nJ
100 us therms = 1.054804e+19 nanojoules.
