double power(double number, units from_unit, units to_unit)

Overview

The standard measurement units are:

Unit names	Alternate names / spellings	Abbreviation	Enumeration Code	Conversion Rate (relative to first unit)
Power
Watts	Watts	W	unit_W	1
British Thermal Unit/hour	BTU/hour	BTU/hr	unit_BTU-hr	3.415179027
British Thermal Unit/minute	BTU/minute	BTU/min	unit_BTU-min	0.05691965
British Thermal Unit/second	BTU/second	BTU/sec	unit_BTU-sec	0.000948661
Calories/second	Calorie/second	cal/sec	unit_cal-sec	0.239058511
Horsepower	Horse power	hp	unit_hp	0.001341022
Pound-feet/minute	Pound-foot/minute	lb.ft/min	unit_lb_ft-min	44.25372896
Pound-feet/second	Pound-foot/second	lb ft/sec	unit_lb_ft-sec	0.737562149

FUNCTION

power

Converts numbers from one power unit to another.

Example 1

#include <iostream>
#include <codecogs/units/convert/power.h>

using namespace Units::Convert;
int main()
{
  std::cout << "power(10.2,unit_BTU_min, unit_W)=" << power(10.2,unit_BTU_min, unit_W);

  return 0;
}

Output:

power(10.2,unit_BTU_min, unit_W)= 179.19997609543

Parameters

number

the value in from_unit 's to convert

from_unit

an enumerated value of the initial power type

to_unit

an emuerated value of the output power type

Returns

the value in the converted unit.
