Unit Description

Microwatt (µW)

Definition

A microwatt (µW) is a unit of power equal to one millionth of a watt (10⁻⁶ W). It represents extremely small amounts of power found in ultra-low-power electronics, biological systems, and precision scientific instruments.

History

The microwatt became necessary with the advancement of microelectronics and the development of ultra-low-power devices. It was particularly important for describing power consumption in integrated circuits, sensors, and biological measurement systems.

Current Use

Microwatts are used in microelectronics, biological research, precision instruments, and ultra-low-power applications. They're essential for describing power consumption in microprocessors, biological sensors, and advanced scientific equipment.

BTU per Hour (BTU/hr)

Definition

BTU per hour (BTU/h) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer of one British Thermal Unit per hour. It's widely used in HVAC applications and provides a practical scale for heating and cooling system ratings.

History

BTU per hour became the standard power unit for HVAC systems and thermal equipment. It provided an appropriate scale for heating and cooling applications, becoming universally adopted in the HVAC industry and building energy systems.

Current Use

BTU per hour is extensively used in HVAC systems, heating and cooling equipment ratings, building energy calculations, and thermal system specifications. It's standard for furnace ratings, air conditioner capacity, and building thermal load calculations.
