Unit Description
BTU per Minute (BTU/min)
Definition
BTU per minute (BTU/min) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer of one British Thermal Unit per minute. It provides an intermediate scale between BTU per second and BTU per hour for thermal power measurements.
History
BTU per minute developed as an intermediate unit for thermal power measurements, providing a convenient scale between the very large BTU per second and the smaller BTU per hour. It became useful for medium-scale thermal applications and equipment ratings.
Current Use
BTU per minute is used in thermal equipment specifications, heating and cooling system ratings, and medium-scale thermal applications. It's found in thermal equipment ratings, industrial heating systems, and applications requiring intermediate thermal power scales.
Kilojoule per Hour (kJ/h)
Definition
Kilojoule per hour (kJ/h) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer of one kilojoule per hour. It provides a convenient scale for moderate power measurements in energy system analysis and thermal applications.
History
Kilojoule per hour developed as a practical unit for energy system analysis and thermal calculations. It provided an appropriate scale for describing power in terms of energy per time, particularly useful in heating and cooling system analysis.
Current Use
Kilojoule per hour is used in energy system analysis, thermal calculations, and heating/cooling applications. It's found in energy efficiency calculations, thermal system design, and applications where energy rates are more intuitive than electrical power units.
