Convert Btu (th)/minute to picowatt
Please provide values below to convert Btu (th)/minute [Btu(th)/min] to picowatt [pW], or Convert picowatt to Btu (th)/minute.
1 Btu(th)/min = 1.7573e+13 pW. To convert Btu (th)/minute to picowatt, multiply the value by 1.7573e+13; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pW = 5.6907e-14 Btu(th)/min). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 Btu(th)/min = 1.7573e+13 pW
- 1 pW = 5.6907e-14 Btu(th)/min
- 10 Btu(th)/min = 1.7573e+14 pW
- 100 Btu(th)/min = 1.7573e+15 pW

Btu (Th)/minute
Btu (th)/minute is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer, specifically in thermochemical British thermal units per minute.
History/Origin
The Btu (th)/minute originated from the British thermal unit (Btu), a traditional unit of heat energy used primarily in the United States, with the 'th' denoting the thermochemical definition. It has been used historically in engineering and heating applications to quantify energy transfer rates.
Current Use
Today, Btu (th)/minute is used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industries to measure heat transfer rates, though it is less common than SI units like watts. It remains relevant in contexts where traditional energy units are preferred.
Picowatt
A picowatt (pW) is a unit of power equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a watt.
History/Origin
The picowatt was introduced as part of the SI prefixes to measure extremely small amounts of power, especially in scientific and technological contexts, following the standardization of the watt as the SI unit of power.
Current Use
Picowatts are used in fields such as electronics, physics, and biology to quantify very low power levels, including in sensor measurements, quantum physics, and nanotechnology applications.
