What does 1 MJ/s represent in power terms?

1 MJ/s is a unit of power equal to one million joules per second, equivalent to one megawatt.

What is MBtu (IT)/hour used for?

MBtu (IT)/hour measures the rate of heat transfer and is often used to rate HVAC equipment, industrial heat input, and energy flow in buildings.

Why should I consider BTU standards when converting?

Different BTU standards exist, so using the International Table BTU ensures consistency for this conversion.
