How to Convert CHU per Hour per Square Foot per Degree Celsius to BTU (IT) per Second per Square Foot per Degree Fahrenheit

Conversion Formula

1 CHU/(h·ft²·°C) = 0 Btu/(s·ft²·°F)
1 Btu/(s·ft²·°F) = 3600 CHU/(h·ft²·°C)

Example

Convert 15 CHU/(h·ft²·°C) to Btu/(s·ft²·°F):

15 CHU/(h·ft²·°C) = 15 × 0 Btu/(s·ft²·°F) = 0.004 Btu/(s·ft²·°F)
