What does femtojoule per second measure?

Femtojoule per second (fJ/s) is a unit of power representing an extremely small rate of energy transfer equal to 10^-15 joules per second.

Why convert from fJ/s to Btu (th)/hour?

Converting from fJ/s to Btu (th)/hour helps translate nanoscale power measurements into conventional thermal units useful for HVAC and energy management.

Is this conversion practical for everyday HVAC use?

No, because femtojoule per second values are extremely small compared to typical HVAC power scales, this conversion is mostly relevant for research and theoretical analysis.
