Btu (Th)/second

Btu (th)/second is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer, specifically one British thermal unit (th) per second.

History/Origin

The British thermal unit (th) has been used historically in the United States for measuring heat energy, and its use in power units like Btu (th)/s dates back to traditional energy and heat transfer calculations in engineering and thermodynamics.

Current Use

Btu (th)/second is primarily used in the United States for industrial and engineering applications involving heat transfer rates, although it is less common compared to SI units like watts.


Joule/second

The joule per second (J/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy is transferred or converted, equivalent to one watt.

History/Origin

The joule per second has been used as a measure of power since the adoption of the SI system, where the watt (W) became the standard unit of power, with 1 J/s = 1 W.

Current Use

J/s is primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify power, especially in physics and electrical engineering, often interchangeably with watts.
