Convert Btu (th)/second to picojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert Btu (th)/second [Btu(th)/s] to picojoule/second [pJ/s], or Convert picojoule/second to Btu (th)/second.
1 Btu(th)/s = 1.0543e+15 pJ/s. To convert Btu (th)/second to picojoule/second, multiply the value by 1.0543e+15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pJ/s = 9.4845e-16 Btu(th)/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

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.
Picojoule/second
A picojoule per second (pJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one trillionth of a joule per second, representing an extremely small rate of energy transfer.
History/Origin
The picojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'pico' denoting a factor of 10^-12. It has been used in scientific contexts requiring precise measurement of very small power levels, especially in fields like nanotechnology and low-power electronics.
Current Use
This unit is used in scientific and engineering applications to quantify extremely low power levels, such as in nanotechnology, bioelectronics, and other fields where minute energy transfer rates are relevant.
