What does Btu (th)/minute measure?

Btu (th)/minute measures thermal power as the transfer of one thermochemical British thermal unit per minute, commonly used in heating and cooling contexts.

An exawatt is a very large unit of power equal to 10^18 watts, used for describing planetary-scale or astrophysical energy flows.

Why convert from Btu (th)/minute to exawatt?

Converting allows comparison of small-scale thermal power with extremely large power levels relevant in global or astrophysical energy analyses.
