Pound-Force Inch
Pound-force inch (lbf·in) is a unit of torque representing the torque resulting from a one-pound-force applied at a perpendicular distance of one inch from the pivot point.
History/Origin
The pound-force inch has been used historically in engineering and mechanical contexts to quantify torque, especially in the United States, based on the imperial system of units. It originated from the need to measure rotational force in machinery and automotive applications.
Current Use
Today, pound-force inch is still used in engineering, automotive, and mechanical fields to specify torque values, particularly in the United States. It is often converted to SI units like newton-meters for international standardization.
Fuel Oil Equivalent @barrel (Us)
Fuel oil equivalent @barrel (US) (foe) is a unit of energy representing the amount of energy contained in one US barrel of fuel oil, used to compare energy content across different fuels.
History/Origin
The foe unit originated in energy and fuel industries to standardize energy measurements, particularly in the context of oil and fuel consumption, and has been used since the mid-20th century for energy accounting and reporting.
Current Use
Today, foe is primarily used in energy statistics, research, and reporting to quantify and compare the energy content of fuel oils and other energy sources in a consistent manner.
