What does dekajoule per second (daJ/s) represent?

Dekajoule per second (daJ/s) is an SI-derived unit of power equal to 10 joules per second or 10 watts, used to measure energy transfer rate.

Why would I convert from daJ/s to pound-foot/hour?

Converting from daJ/s to pound-foot/hour is useful for expressing power in older imperial mechanical units, especially for legacy equipment or hand-crank mechanisms.

Is pound-foot/hour suitable for high-power applications?

No, the pound-foot/hour unit is intended for very low continuous mechanical power outputs and is not practical for high-power measurements.

What Is This Tool?

This online converter allows you to translate power values from dekajoule per second (daJ/s), an SI-derived power unit, into pound-foot per hour (lbf*ft/h), an imperial unit representing mechanical work rate over time. It is designed for applications involving power measurement conversions between modern and historical units.

How to Use This Tool?

Input the power value in dekajoule per second (daJ/s) you want to convert.
Select the output unit as pound-foot per hour (lbf*ft/h).
Click the convert button to see the equivalent value in pound-foot/hour.
Use the result for your mechanical or legacy unit analysis needs.

Key Features

Supports power unit conversion relevant to both SI and imperial measurement systems.
Ideal for applications in mechanical engineering, vintage machinery restoration, and horology.
User-friendly interface for quick and straightforward conversions.

Examples

2 daJ/s converts to 53104.47474804 lbf*ft/h using the formula: 2 × 26552.23737402.
0.5 daJ/s converts to 13276.11868701 lbf*ft/h by multiplying 0.5 by 26552.23737402.

Common Use Cases

Expressing power in imperial mechanical units for legacy equipment documentation.
Converting SI power units to imperial units when estimating hand-crank or slow winch work rates.
Analyzing power specification for small clock or gear-train devices in mechanical engineering.
Restoring vintage machinery where historical power units are used.

Tips & Best Practices
