What does foot pound-force per minute measure?

It measures mechanical power as the amount of work done in foot-pounds each minute, representing the rate of doing mechanical work.

What is a dekajoule per second [daJ/s]?

A dekajoule per second is an SI-derived unit of power equal to 10 joules per second, used to quantify the rate of energy transfer or conversion.

Why convert from foot pound-force/minute to dekajoule/second?

Converting to dekajoule per second allows standardizing power measurements to SI-derived units, improving compatibility and comparison in engineering and scientific contexts.
