Kilo-Jewels per second being a measure of the rate of mining of gemstones :P


Yeah, it's Kj/Sec to stop it being confused with Kw of power, as 100kw of power might need 200kw of cooling, and people tend to get confused by that.

Re: cooling unit of measure?

I seriously read Kilo-jews... which relates to something completely different. i was quite shocked, blinked and then read it again.

ON-topic: Is square inches the american calculation for the cooling?

Re: cooling unit of measure?

I don't think so. I believe that it would be a calculation for drag. To my knowledge, cooling must be measured in a unit of energy, which inches is not.

Re: cooling unit of measure?

Square inches have nothing to do with cooling directly, you cannot compare kJ/s and sq. inches in any meaningful way.

That is very true. But there is also no reason to make jokes about it.

Well the English(or non-SI) unit for Heat Transfer is BTU/h. So yes, it would be impossibly hard.

Re: cooling unit of measure?

The kilojoules (1*10^3 J or 1000 J (Joules)) is used to measure energy, work and heat.

J=kg m2/s2.
A Watt (W) is kg m2/s3; relationed with the joule, is this: W= 1J/s (s=second).

In conclusion, 1 KJ/S is the same that 1000W.
