What does kilojoule per minute (kJ/min) measure?

Kilojoule per minute is a unit of power indicating how much energy is transferred at the rate of one kilojoule each minute.

Where is Btu (th)/minute commonly used?

Btu (th)/minute is often used in HVAC systems and industrial thermal applications to specify the rate of heat transfer.

Why convert from kilojoule per minute to Btu (th)/minute?

Converting helps translate energy transfer rates into thermal units widely accepted for heating and cooling capacity assessments.
