Convert gigajoule/second to microwatt

Please provide values below to convert gigajoule/second [GJ/s] to microwatt [µW], or Convert microwatt to gigajoule/second.




How to Convert Gigajoule/second to Microwatt

1 GJ/s = 1e+15 µW

Example: convert 15 GJ/s to µW:
15 GJ/s = 15 × 1e+15 µW = 1.5e+16 µW

Gigajoule/second

A gigajoule per second (GJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one gigajoule of energy transferred or converted per second.

History/Origin

The gigajoule per second emerged as a larger-scale unit of power measurement, primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify high power levels, especially in energy production and consumption. It is derived from the SI unit joule and the prefix giga, combined with the second as the time unit.

Current Use

GJ/s is used in fields such as energy industry, power generation, and large-scale energy transfer analysis to express high power rates, often in the context of power plants, energy infrastructure, and large energy projects.


Microwatt

A microwatt (µW) is a unit of power equal to one millionth of a watt, used to measure very small amounts of power.

History/Origin

The microwatt was introduced as part of the metric system's effort to provide standardized units for small quantities of power, especially in scientific and technological contexts, gaining prominence with the adoption of the International System of Units (SI).

Current Use

Microwatts are used in fields such as electronics, telecommunications, and biomedical engineering to quantify low power levels in devices, sensors, and circuits.
