MBH is a non-SI unit mainly for heating power rates, whereas femtojoule/second applies to extremely small power levels
-
Conversion results in very large numbers, which can be cumbersome and require careful numerical handling
-
Direct conversions between these units are rarely needed due to their vast scale differences
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does MBH stand for and where is it used?
-
MBH stands for one thousand British thermal units per hour and is commonly used to rate heat output or input in HVAC equipment.
-
What is a femtojoule per second (fJ/s)?
-
A femtojoule per second is a unit of power equal to 10^-15 watts, used to measure extremely small rates of energy transfer in scientific experiments.
-
Why would I convert MBH to femtojoule/second?
