Why convert from Btu (IT)/second to Btu (IT)/minute?

Converting to Btu (IT)/minute expresses power over a longer duration, which can be more practical for rating equipment that uses per-minute heat transfer values.

Is the conversion between Btu (IT)/second and Btu (IT)/minute exact?

Yes, the conversion is a direct factor of 60 due to the difference between seconds and minutes.

Can this converter be used for HVAC and industrial applications?

Absolutely, it is designed to assist in HVAC design, thermal engineering, and industrial heat transfer calculations.
