Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (watt (W)) without arbitrary rounding:

V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)

Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)

1. Source SI Bridge (k_source):1 TW = 1 × 10¹² watt (W)

2. Target SI Bridge (k_target):1 MBH = 293.07107 watt (W)

Step-by-step substitution for Terawatt → MBH:V(MBH) = V(TW) × ( 1 × 10¹² / 293.07107 ) = V(TW) × 3.412142 × 10⁹
