What does kilojoule per minute measure?

Kilojoule per minute measures the rate of energy transfer equal to one kilojoule delivered or consumed each minute.

When should I use foot pound-force per minute?

Foot pound-force per minute is used for expressing small mechanical power in imperial units, often in legacy engineering or slow mechanical work.

Is the conversion exact between these units?

The conversion uses a defined factor but may introduce rounding and is less precise than watt-based units.

Provides quick conversions ideal for engineering, physiology, and laboratory applications
Supports legacy and imperial unit usage alongside metric measurements
Browser-based and easy to use with no installation required

Examples

2 kJ/min converts to approximately 1475.12 foot pound-force/minute
0.5 kJ/min converts to approximately 368.78 foot pound-force/minute

Common Use Cases

Reporting metabolic energy expenditure in exercise physiology with minute-based measurements
Describing heating or cooling rates in laboratory calorimetry tracked per minute
Specifying power of small appliances using energy measured over minutes
Estimating power for slow rotational mechanical work in legacy engineering documents
Quantifying power for small hand-tools or manual winches using imperial units

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure consistent input units to avoid conversion errors
Verify the context where imperial units are appropriate, especially in legacy documentation
Use the tool for power values measured in minute intervals rather than seconds
Be mindful of possible rounding differences when converting between metric and imperial units

Limitations

Conversions between metric and non-SI imperial units may involve rounding approximations
Foot pound-force per minute is less standard and precise than watt-based units
High precision metric values may lose accuracy due to conversion factor rounding
Not ideal for scientific calculations requiring very exact power measurements
