Megajoule/second
A megajoule per second (MJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one megajoule of energy transferred or converted per second, where 1 megajoule equals 1,000,000 joules.
History/Origin
The megajoule per second has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify large-scale power, especially in fields like physics and energy systems, as a convenient unit for expressing high power levels. It is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second).
Current Use
Today, MJ/s is primarily used in scientific research, energy production, and engineering to describe high power outputs, such as in power plants, large-scale energy systems, and theoretical calculations involving energy transfer rates.
Joule/hour
A joule per hour (J/h) is a unit of power representing the amount of energy (in joules) transferred or converted per hour.
History/Origin
The joule per hour has been used as a measure of power in various scientific and engineering contexts, especially where energy transfer rates are expressed over longer periods. It is derived from the SI unit of energy, the joule, divided by time in hours.
Current Use
Joule per hour is occasionally used in fields like heating, energy consumption, and industrial processes to quantify power over extended durations, though it is less common than watts for standard power measurements.
