How to Convert Therms to Joules

To convert therms to joules, multiply the number of therms by 1.055 x 108. This is because 1 therm is a unit of heat energy equal to 100,000 British Thermal Units (BTU), and 1 BTU is approximately 1055.06 joules.

Formula

Joules = Therms × (1.055 × 108)

or

J = thm × 1.055e8

Step-by-step process

  1. Take the measurement in therms
  2. Multiply that number by 1.055e8
  3. The result is the equivalent energy in joules

Examples

  • 1 thm = 1 × 1.055e8 = 105,500,000 J
  • 5 thm = 5 × 1.055e8 = 527,500,000 J
  • 10 thm = 10 × 1.055e8 = 1,055,000,000 J
