The British Thermal Unit (Btu) is a traditional unit of heat. It is part of the British Imperial system and is used to measure the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. The Btu is commonly used in the power, steam generation, and heating industries. While not a part of the International System of Units (SI), it remains a crucial measurement in specific scientific and engineering contexts, especially in North America.
Definition of GigajouleA gigajoule (GJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI), representing one billion joules. The joule is the derived unit of energy, work, or amount of heat in the SI. It is named after James Prescott Joule, an English physicist. Gigajoules are commonly used in various applications, including natural gas consumption and large-scale energy production, providing a clear understanding of massive energy quantities in scientific research, industrial processes, and everyday energy consumption.
Btu (IT)/minute | Gigajoule/second |
---|---|
0.01 Btu/min | 1.757e-11 GJ/s |
0.1 Btu/min | 1.757e-10 GJ/s |
1 Btu/min | 1.757e-9 GJ/s |
10 Btu/min | 1.757e-8 GJ/s |
100 Btu/min | 1.757e-7 GJ/s |
1000 Btu/min | 1.757e-6 GJ/s |
10000 Btu/min | 1.757e-5 GJ/s |
100000 Btu/min | 1.757e-4 GJ/s |
1000000 Btu/min | 1.757e-3 GJ/s |
10000000 Btu/min | 1.757e-2 GJ/s |
1 Btu/min = 1.757e-9 GJ/s
1 GJ/s = 5.69e8 Btu/min
Example 1:
Convert 50 Btu/min to GJ/s:
50 Btu/min = 50 × 1.757e-9 GJ/s = 8.785e-8 GJ/s
Example 2:
Convert 100 Btu/min to GJ/s:
100 Btu/min = 100 × 1.757e-9 GJ/s = 1.757e-7 GJ/s
