What does petajoule per second measure?

It measures power as an extremely large rate of energy transfer equal to 10^15 joules per second, used for describing massive energy flows.

Where is Btu (th)/second commonly used?

Btu (th)/second quantifies thermal power in heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and industrial energy systems.

Why convert PJ/s to Btu (th)/s?

Conversion helps relate large-scale power data to thermal energy rates useful in HVAC and heat-transfer contexts.
