How to Convert BTU (th) Foot per Hour per Square Foot per Degree Fahrenheit to BTU (th) Inch per Hour per Square Foot per Degree Fahrenheit

Conversion Formula

1 Btu·ft/(h·ft²·°F) = 12 Btu·in/(h·ft²·°F)
1 Btu·in/(h·ft²·°F) = 0.083 Btu·ft/(h·ft²·°F)

Example

Convert 15 Btu·ft/(h·ft²·°F) to Btu·in/(h·ft²·°F):

15 Btu·ft/(h·ft²·°F) = 15 × 12 Btu·in/(h·ft²·°F) = 180 Btu·in/(h·ft²·°F)
