How to Convert Therms to Ergs

To convert therms to ergs, multiply the number of therms by 1.055 x 1015. This is because 1 therm is equal to 1.05506 x 108 joules, and 1 joule is 10,000,000 ergs.

Formula

Ergs = Therms × 1.055e15

or

erg = thm × 1.055e15

Step-by-step process

  1. Take the measurement in therms
  2. Multiply that number by 1.055e15
  3. The result is the equivalent energy in ergs

Examples

  • 1 thm = 1 × 1.055e15 = 1.055 x 1015 ergs
  • 5 thm = 5 × 1.055e15 = 5.275 x 1015 ergs
  • 10 thm = 10 × 1.055e15 = 1.055 x 1016 ergs
