What does joule per minute measure?

It measures power as the rate of energy transfer averaged per minute, useful in applications with minute-scale energy quantification.

In what industries is Btu (th)/second commonly used?

Btu (th)/second is widely used in HVAC systems, boiler and heat exchanger performance assessments, and energy system simulations.

Why convert from joule/minute to Btu (th)/second?

Converting allows expressing power in terms favored in thermal energy transfer and HVAC applications, where second-based thermal units are preferred.
