Unit Description
Deciwatt (dW)
Definition
A deciwatt (dW) is a unit of power equal to one tenth of a watt (0.1 W). It represents very small power levels typically found in low-power electronic devices, sensors, and precision instruments.
History
The deciwatt developed as part of the metric system's decimal structure, providing a convenient unit for small power measurements. It became useful for describing power consumption of low-power electronic devices and precision instruments.
Current Use
Deciwatts are used for low-power electronic devices, sensor specifications, and precision instruments. They're found in specifications for small sensors, low-power circuits, and electronic devices requiring minimal power consumption.
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.

Conversion Examples
Convert 1 Deciwatt to BTU per Minute
- Conversion Factor: 1 dW = 0.0056869 BTU/min
- Conversion Formula: BTU/min = dW ÷ 175.843
- Calculation: 1 dW ÷ 175.843 = 0.0056869 BTU/min
Convert 10 Deciwatt to BTU per Minute
- Conversion Factor: 1 dW = 0.0056869 BTU/min
- Conversion Formula: BTU/min = dW ÷ 175.843
- Calculation: 10 dW ÷ 175.843 = 0.056869 BTU/min
Convert 100 Deciwatt to BTU per Minute
- Conversion Factor: 1 dW = 0.0056869 BTU/min
- Conversion Formula: BTU/min = dW ÷ 175.843
- Calculation: 100 dW ÷ 175.843 = 0.56869 BTU/min
Convert 1,000 Deciwatt to BTU per Minute
- Conversion Factor: 1 dW = 0.0056869 BTU/min
- Conversion Formula: BTU/min = dW ÷ 175.843
- Calculation: 1,000 dW ÷ 175.843 = 5.6869 BTU/min
