About Converting Foot-pounds per second to Yoctowatts
Foot-pound per second and Yoctowatt both describe power output, and the conversion is a routine part of comparing an engine or motor's spec sheet across countries that use different power units. Specifically: Mechanical power rate, and yoctowatt is 1e-24 watt units.
Formula
yoctowatts = foot-pounds per second × 1.355818e+24
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 foot-pound per second equals 1.35581794833 base units, and 1 yoctowatt equals 1e-24 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct foot-pound per second-to-yoctowatt factor of 1.355818e+24.
Simple example
1 ft-lb/s × 1.355818e+24 = 1.355818e+24 yW
1 foot-pound per second = 1.355818e+24 yoctowatts.
Real-world example
100 ft-lb/s × 1.355818e+24 = 1.355818e+26 yW
100 foot-pounds per second = 1.355818e+26 yoctowatts.
