What does centijoule per second measure?

A centijoule per second (cJ/s) measures power as one hundredth of a joule transferred each second, equivalent to 0.01 watts.

When should I use foot pound-force per hour units?

Use foot pound-force per hour (ft·lbf/hr) to express small mechanical power or work rates in legacy imperial unit systems or for historical engineering data.

Why convert between these two power units?

Converting helps translate precise SI unit measurements into legacy imperial units for comparison, documentation, or application with older mechanical systems.

What Is This Tool?

This converter helps you change power values from centijoule per second (cJ/s), a small SI unit expressing energy transfer rates, into foot pound-force per hour (ft·lbf/hr), a legacy imperial unit used in mechanical and engineering fields.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the power value in centijoule/second (cJ/s).
Select the output unit as foot pound-force/hour (ft·lbf/hr).
Click convert to get the equivalent power in foot pound-force per hour.
Review the converted result for use in documentation or analysis.

Key Features

Converts between centijoule/second and foot pound-force/hour power units
Supports precise translation of small power values from SI to imperial units
Uses a fixed conversion factor based on energy and time relationships
Suitable for scientific, engineering, and legacy equipment contexts

Examples

2 cJ/s equals 53.104474748 ft·lbf/hr
0.5 cJ/s equals 13.276118687 ft·lbf/hr

Common Use Cases

Specifying power consumption of low-power sensors, IoT devices, and wearables
Reporting small steady mechanical outputs of legacy motors and gear trains
Describing power harvested by micro-energy systems and laboratory components
Converting imperial power data into SI units or vice versa for engineering documentation

Tips & Best Practices

Verify unit selections carefully before conversion to avoid errors.
Use this converter to compare legacy and modern power measurements.
Remember that foot pound-force/hour is less precise than SI watt units for very low powers.
Use converted values in context with device specifications and measurement limitations.

Limitations

Foot pound-force per hour is a non-SI unit and provides less precision than watt-based units.
Conversion accuracy may be affected by rounding due to different unit scales.
Not suitable for high-precision power measurements at very low levels.
Primarily intended for engineering and scientific contexts involving legacy or specialized equipment.
