Watts to btu per hours calculator

Convert watts (W) to BTU per hour (BTU/h) easily. 1 W = 3.412141633 BTU/h. Perfect for HVAC, heating, and cooling capacity conversions.

w to btu/h conversion chart

In order to determine watts to BTU/hr, you can multiply the watts by 3.412141633. To find the reverse, take BTU/h divided by 3.412141633. This is normally applied in HVAC or heat calculations.

Formula & Table Summary:

W → BTU/h : BTU/h = W × 3.412141633
BTU/h → W : W = BTU/h × 0.29307107

Watts to BTU/h Calculator Watts (W) and BTU/h ( British Thermal Units per hour) are both popular measurements of power and heat transfer, which is why the Calculator changes between those units. The precise relationship is 1W = 3.412141633 BTU/h and 1 BTU/h = 0.29307107 W. This is an essential conversion to HVAC systems, heaters, air conditioners, and any comparisons involving energy ratings between the SI (International System of Units), and the U.S. customary system. As an engineer, technician or homeowner, this tool guarantees me fast yet accurate conversions that need no manual calculation.

Frequently Asked Questions - Watts to btu per hours calculator:

What is the watts to BTU/h formula?

BTU/h = W × 3.412141633.

How to convert BTU/h to watts?

W = BTU/h × 0.29307107.

Why is 1 W equal to 3.412 BTU/h?

It comes from converting joules per second to BTUs per hour.

Is this used for HVAC?

Yes, HVAC systems often rate capacity in BTU/h which can be converted to watts.

Does this apply to heating and cooling?

Yes, the formula is the same for both heating and cooling power.

What is a BTU?

A BTU is the heat required to raise 1 pound of water by 1°F.

Why use watts instead of BTU/h?

Watts are the global SI unit of power, easier for scientific calculations.

How do I convert watts to kBTU/h?

kBTU/h = (W × 3.412141633) ÷ 1000.

Is 1000 W equal to 3412 BTU/h?

Yes, exactly 1000 watts is 3412.141633 BTU/h.

Can I round the factor?

Yes, 3.412 is often used for quick estimates.
