Energy unit equivalent
| |
KJ |
= kilojoule = 1 000 joules
= 0.948 213 BTU’s |
| |
MJ |
= megajoule = 1 000 000 joules |
| |
GJ |
= gigajoule = 1 000 000 000 joules |
| |
TJ |
= terajoule = 1 000 000 000 000 joules |
| |
PJ |
= petajoule = 1.0 x 1015 joules
= 948 213 000 000 joules |
| |
1 BTU |
= 1 054.615 joules |
| |
1 terajoule |
= 161.48 barrels
crude oil |
| |
1 barrel of crude oil |
= 6.193 gigajoules |
| |
1 tonne oil equivalent (TOE) |
= 41.9 GJ |
| |
1 tonne coal equivalent (TCE) |
= 29.3 GJ |
To convert BTU / Barrel of crude oil to TJ / m 3 multiply
