Kiloton
A kiloton (kton) is a unit of mass equal to 1,000 metric tons or 1,000,000 kilograms.
History/Origin
The term 'kiloton' has been used historically to measure large quantities of mass, especially in contexts like military explosives and nuclear weapon yields, where it signifies the equivalent of 1,000 tons of TNT.
Current Use
Today, kilotons are primarily used to quantify the explosive power of nuclear weapons and large-scale energy measurements, as well as in some industrial and scientific applications involving large masses.
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.
