Convert pound-foot/hour to terajoule/second
Please provide values below to convert pound-foot/hour [lbf*ft/h] to terajoule/second [TJ/s], or Convert terajoule/second to pound-foot/hour.
1 lbf*ft/h = 3.7662e-16 TJ/s. To convert pound-foot/hour to terajoule/second, multiply the value by 3.7662e-16; to go the other way, divide by it (1 TJ/s = 2.6552e+15 lbf*ft/h). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 lbf*ft/h = 3.7662e-16 TJ/s

Pound-Foot/hour
Pound-foot per hour (lbf·ft/h) is a unit of power representing the amount of work done in foot-pounds per hour, commonly used in engineering to measure power output or consumption.
History/Origin
The pound-foot per hour originated from the imperial system of units, primarily used in the United States, to quantify power in mechanical and engineering contexts. Its usage has declined with the adoption of SI units but remains relevant in certain industries.
Current Use
Today, pound-foot per hour is primarily used in specific engineering fields, such as mechanical and aerospace engineering, for measuring power in systems where imperial units are standard. It is also used in historical data and legacy systems.
Terajoule/second
A terajoule per second (TJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one trillion joules of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The terajoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'tera' indicating a factor of 10^12. It is used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure very high power levels, especially in fields like astrophysics and energy production.
Current Use
TJ/s is used to quantify extremely high power outputs, such as in large-scale energy systems, astrophysical phenomena, and nuclear reactions, where conventional units like watts are insufficient to express the magnitude.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 pound-foot/hour in terajoule/second?
1 pound-foot/hour (lbf*ft/h) = 3.7662e-16 terajoule/second (TJ/s).
How do you convert pound-foot/hour to terajoule/second?
Multiply the pound-foot/hour value by 3.7662e-16. For example, 25 lbf*ft/h × 3.7662e-16 = 9.4154e-15 TJ/s.
What is 10 pound-foot/hour in terajoule/second?
10 lbf*ft/h = 3.7662e-15 TJ/s.
Which unit is larger, the pound-foot/hour or the terajoule/second?
The terajoule/second is the larger unit: 1 lbf*ft/h equals only 3.7662e-16 TJ/s.
