What is a pound-foot/second?

It is an Imperial unit of power that measures the rate of mechanical work equal to one pound-force foot performed each second.

What does megajoule/second represent?

Megajoule per second is a unit of power representing one million joules of energy transferred every second, equivalent to one megawatt.

Why convert pound-foot/second to megajoule/second?

Conversions enable compatibility and comparison between traditional Imperial mechanical power units and large-scale SI units used in industrial and energy contexts.

What Is This Tool?

This unit converter transforms power values from pound-foot per second, a mechanical power unit in the Imperial system, into megajoule per second [MJ/s], an SI unit commonly used for large-scale energy rate measurements.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the power value in pound-foot/second.
Select pound-foot/second as the input unit and megajoule/second [MJ/s] as the output unit.
Click convert to see the equivalent value in megajoule/second.

Key Features

Converts mechanical power from pound-foot/second to megajoule/second [MJ/s].
Supports translation between Imperial and SI measurement systems.
Ideal for engineering and industrial applications involving power calculations.

Examples

10 pound-foot/second equals 0.000013558179483294 MJ/s.
1000 pound-foot/second converts to 0.0013558179483294 MJ/s.

Common Use Cases

Calculating mechanical power from torque combined with rotational speed in Imperial units.
Estimating small motor or shaft power outputs given in pound-foot/second.
Converting traditional technical specifications to SI units for performance analysis.
Expressing energy output rates of power plants or large industrial equipment.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure input values correspond correctly to mechanical power measured in pound-foot/second.
Use the tool to translate values accurately for large-scale energy reporting.
Be mindful that resulting values in MJ/s may be very small due to unit size differences.

Limitations

Conversions produce very small decimal numbers since pound-foot/second is a much smaller unit than MJ/s.
Primarily useful where consistency between Imperial and SI power units is required.
Direct practical uses of MJ/s usually pertain to large energy scales, not small mechanical power.
