Btu (It)/minute
Btu (IT)/minute is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer, specifically in British thermal units per minute.
History/Origin
The British thermal unit (Btu) has been used historically in the United States and the UK to measure heat energy. The 'IT' designation refers to the International Table value of the Btu. The unit per minute was adopted to quantify power, which is energy transfer rate, in various engineering and thermodynamic contexts.
Current Use
Btu (IT)/minute is used in engineering, HVAC, and thermodynamics to measure heat transfer rates, especially in systems where energy flow is expressed per unit time. It is part of power conversions within the broader category of common energy and power units.
Newton Meter/second
A unit of power representing one newton meter of work done per second, equivalent to a watt.
History/Origin
The newton meter/second has been used in physics and engineering to quantify power, especially in contexts involving torque and rotational work, aligning with the SI system's units for work and time.
Current Use
Primarily used in engineering and physics to measure power in systems involving torque and rotational motion, often interchangeably with watts in SI units.
