Kilojoule/minute
A kilojoule per minute (kJ/min) is a unit of power representing the amount of energy in kilojoules transferred or converted per minute.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per minute has been used as a unit of power in various scientific and engineering contexts, especially in fields where energy transfer rates are measured over time, though it is less common than watts. Its usage has been consistent with the adoption of the SI system, where energy is measured in joules and power in watts.
Current Use
Today, the kilojoule per minute is primarily used in specialized fields such as nutrition, physics, and engineering to express energy transfer rates, particularly when dealing with larger quantities of energy over time, although the watt remains the standard SI unit for power.
Exajoule/second
An exajoule per second (EJ/s) is a unit of power representing the transfer or conversion of one exajoule of energy every second.
History/Origin
The exajoule (EJ) is a metric unit of energy introduced as part of the International System of Units (SI) to measure large quantities of energy. The concept of power units like EJ/s emerged with the development of large-scale energy measurement, particularly in fields such as astrophysics and energy production, to quantify extremely high power levels.
Current Use
EJ/s is used primarily in theoretical and large-scale energy discussions, such as in astrophysics, planetary science, and global energy consumption analysis, where extremely high power levels are involved.
