What is a terajoule per second (TJ/s)?

It is a power unit representing an energy transfer rate of one terajoule (10^12 joules) every second, equivalent to one terawatt.

What does foot pound-force per minute measure?

It measures mechanical power as the rate of doing work equal to one foot-pound force performed each minute, commonly used in imperial engineering contexts.

Why convert TJ/s to foot pound-force per minute?

This conversion helps compare extremely large electrical power figures to smaller mechanical power units used in legacy systems or mechanical tool specifications.

Specifying power for low-power mechanical equipment in imperial units
Energy planning involving both national-scale electric power and legacy mechanical power metrics

Tips & Best Practices

Double-check unit consistency when mixing SI and imperial power units
Use the converter primarily for theoretical or specialized engineering contexts due to the large scale difference
Leverage the tool for high-level energy planning and cross-unit comparisons
Keep in mind the limitations of the foot pound-force/minute as a non-SI unit

Limitations

The large magnitude difference between units makes the converter mostly theoretical or for niche applications
Foot pound-force per minute is a non-SI unit and must be handled carefully with SI units
Conversion precision may be affected by rounding due to legacy unit standards
