Convert kilojoule/minute to petajoule/second
Please provide values below to convert kilojoule/minute [kJ/min] to petajoule/second [PJ/s], or Convert petajoule/second to kilojoule/minute.
1 kJ/min = 1.6667e-14 PJ/s. To convert kilojoule/minute to petajoule/second, multiply the value by 1.6667e-14; to go the other way, divide by it (1 PJ/s = 6.0000e+13 kJ/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 kJ/min = 1.6667e-14 PJ/s
- 1 PJ/s = 6.0000e+13 kJ/min
- 10 kJ/min = 1.6667e-13 PJ/s
- 100 kJ/min = 1.6667e-12 PJ/s
How to Convert Kilojoule/minute to Petajoule/second
1 kJ/min = 1.666666667e-14 PJ/s
Example: convert 15 kJ/min to PJ/s:
15 kJ/min = 15 × 1.666666667e-14 PJ/s = 2.5000000005e-13 PJ/s

Kilojoule/minute
A kilojoule per minute (kJ/min) is a unit of power representing the amount of energy in kilojoules transferred or converted per minute.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per minute has been used as a unit of power in various scientific and engineering contexts, especially in fields where energy transfer rates are measured over time, though it is less common than watts. Its usage has been consistent with the adoption of the SI system, where energy is measured in joules and power in watts.
Current Use
Today, the kilojoule per minute is primarily used in specialized fields such as nutrition, physics, and engineering to express energy transfer rates, particularly when dealing with larger quantities of energy over time, although the watt remains the standard SI unit for power.
Petajoule/second
A petajoule per second (PJ/s) is a unit of power representing the transfer or conversion of one petajoule of energy every second.
History/Origin
The petajoule (PJ) is a metric unit of energy introduced as part of the International System of Units (SI) to measure large quantities of energy. The concept of power in terms of energy per unit time has been fundamental in physics, with the watt (W) as the SI base unit. The petajoule per second emerged as a large-scale unit for high-energy power measurements, especially in fields like energy production and scientific research.
Current Use
Petajoule per second is used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify extremely high power levels, such as in nuclear energy, large-scale power generation, and astrophysics. It is also used in theoretical and large-scale energy calculations where conventional units like watts are insufficient.
Frequently Asked Questions
