British Thermal Unit, , a unit measurement of heat or energy, usually abbreviated as Btu or BTU. One Btu was originally defined as the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 lb (0.45 kg) of water from 59.5° F (15.3° C) to 60.5° F (15.8° C) at constant pressure of 1 atmosphere;

The SI unit for all forms of energy is the joule: defined as Kilograms meters2/second2
Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin.
