Convert horsepower (boiler) to femtojoule/second

Please provide values below to convert horsepower (boiler) [hp (boiler)] to femtojoule/second [fJ/s], or Convert femtojoule/second to horsepower (boiler).




How to Convert Horsepower (Boiler) to Femtojoule/second

1 hp (boiler) = 9.81e+18 fJ/s

Example: convert 15 hp (boiler) to fJ/s:
15 hp (boiler) = 15 Γ— 9.81e+18 fJ/s = 1.4715e+20 fJ/s

Horsepower (Boiler)

Horsepower (boiler) is a unit of power used to measure the rate of energy transfer, specifically indicating the power of steam boilers, equivalent to approximately 33,475 watts.

History/Origin

The boiler horsepower was developed in the late 19th century to standardize the measurement of steam boiler capacity, primarily in the United States, and has been used historically in engineering and industrial applications to quantify boiler power output.

Current Use

Today, boiler horsepower is primarily used in the United States for specifying the capacity of steam boilers in industrial and commercial settings, although it has largely been replaced by SI units like watts or kilowatts in most regions.


Femtojoule/second

A femtojoule per second (fJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer of one femtojoule (10^-15 joules) per second.

History/Origin

The femtojoule/second unit emerged with the development of high-precision measurements in nanotechnology and quantum physics, where extremely small energy transfer rates are relevant. It is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'femto' denoting 10^-15.

Current Use

The femtojoule/second is used in scientific research to quantify very small power levels, particularly in fields like nanotechnology, quantum computing, and molecular physics, where energy transfer rates are extremely low.
