Calorie (It)
The calorie (cal) is a unit of energy traditionally used to quantify the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius at standard atmospheric pressure.
History/Origin
The calorie was originally defined in the 19th century as a unit of heat energy in thermodynamics. It has historically been used in nutrition and physics, but has largely been replaced by the joule in scientific contexts. The 'small calorie' (cal) is distinct from the 'large calorie' (kcal), which is commonly used in food energy labeling.
Current Use
Today, the calorie is primarily used in nutrition to measure the energy content of foods and beverages, although the SI unit of energy, the joule, is increasingly preferred in scientific and technical fields.
Fuel Oil Equivalent @kiloliter
Fuel oil equivalent (foe) is a unit of energy representing the amount of energy contained in one kiloliter of fuel oil.
History/Origin
The foe has been used historically in energy and fuel industries to quantify large quantities of energy, particularly in the context of oil and energy resource assessments.
Current Use
Today, the foe is primarily used in energy statistics and reports to compare and aggregate energy consumption and production across different sources and regions.
