What does a centijoule per second measure?

It measures the rate of energy transfer or power and equals one hundredth of a joule per second, representing a very small power level.

When should I use pound-foot per minute units?

Use pound-foot per minute to express mechanical power rates in imperial units, especially in legacy systems or for small rotating machinery.

Can I use this conversion for transient power readings?

No, this conversion assumes steady power output and may not accurately reflect transient or rapidly changing power.

What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms power values expressed in centijoules per second, a metric unit for very small power, into pound-foot per minute, an imperial unit commonly used in mechanical engineering to represent power based on torque and rotational speed.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the power value in centijoule/second (cJ/s) that you want to convert
Select centijoule/second as the input unit and pound-foot/minute as the output unit
Click the convert button to get the equivalent power in pound-foot/minute
Review the result to relate SI power values to imperial mechanical units

Key Features

Converts very small power values from centijoule/second to pound-foot/minute
Supports engineering and scientific contexts involving low-power devices
Browser-based and easy to use without installation
Provides quick unit conversion for legacy and imperial power measurement systems

Examples

Convert 10 cJ/s to pound-foot/minute results in 4.425372896 lbf·ft/min
Convert 0.5 cJ/s to pound-foot/minute results in 0.2212686448 lbf·ft/min

Common Use Cases

Specifying power consumption in low-power sensors and wearable electronics
Reporting steady power from photodiodes, LEDs, or prototype micro-energy harvesters
Converting torque and rotational speed data from imperial engineering systems
Comparing power ratings of small machinery with legacy horsepower ratings

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure your measurements represent steady power values for accurate conversion
Use this conversion to align scientific measurements with imperial engineering data
Remember the scale difference when interpreting very small power in imperial units

Key Terminology

Centijoule/second (cJ/s): A metric power unit equaling one hundredth of a joule transferred per second, used for very small steady power levels.
Pound-foot per minute (lbf·ft/min): An imperial unit of mechanical power representing the work done when a one-pound force moves one foot in one minute.
Power: The rate at which energy is transferred or converted, often expressed in watts or mechanical-based units.
