Joule/minute
Joule per minute (J/min) is a unit of power representing the amount of energy in joules transferred or converted per minute.
History/Origin
The joule per minute has been used as a measure of power in various engineering and scientific contexts, especially where energy transfer rates are expressed over time, though it is less common than watts.
Current Use
J/min is used in specific applications such as industrial processes, heating systems, and other scenarios where power is measured over a minute, but it is generally converted to watts for standardization in scientific and technical fields.
Calorie (Th)/second
Calorie (th)/second (cal(th)/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which thermal calories are transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The calorie (th), or thermochemical calorie, was historically used to quantify energy in thermodynamics and nutrition. Its use in power measurement, such as cal(th)/s, emerged in scientific contexts to express thermal energy transfer rates before the adoption of the watt as the standard SI unit.
Current Use
Today, cal(th)/s is rarely used in scientific practice, having been largely replaced by watts (W). It may still appear in specialized fields or historical references related to thermal energy transfer rates.
