What does 1 gigajoule per second represent in watts?

One gigajoule per second equals one gigawatt (10^9 watts), describing very high continuous power levels.

Why convert gigajoule/second to newton meter/second?

This conversion allows expressing large power values in terms of mechanical power relevant for torque and rotational speed analyses.

Can this tool convert non-SI power units?

No, it only supports conversions within SI units; non-SI units require separate calculation steps.
