Formula: erg = thm × 1.055056e+15

Reverse: thm = erg × 9.478171e-16

Step-by-Step Example

Start with your value in Therm. For example: 5 thm
Multiply by the conversion factor: 5 x 1.055056e+15
The result is: 5.275279e+15 erg

About Therm

The therm (thm) is a unit of energy and work. One therm equals 1.055056 × 10^+8 joules. UnitConvertLab converts it against every other energy unit using this exact definition, so results are reproducible to full double precision rather than rounded lookup tables.

Common uses: energy calculations, engineering and science, education.

About Erg

The erg (erg) is a unit of energy and work. One erg equals 1.000000 × 10^-7 joules. UnitConvertLab converts it against every other energy unit using this exact definition, so results are reproducible to full double precision rather than rounded lookup tables.

Common uses: energy calculations, engineering and science, education.
