How to Convert BTU (th) Foot per Hour per Square Foot per Degree Fahrenheit to Calorie (th) per Second per Centimeter per Degree Celsius

Conversion Formula

1 Btu·ft/(h·ft²·°F) = 0.004 cal/(s·cm·°C)
1 cal/(s·cm·°C) = 241.909 Btu·ft/(h·ft²·°F)

Example

Convert 15 Btu·ft/(h·ft²·°F) to cal/(s·cm·°C):

15 Btu·ft/(h·ft²·°F) = 15 × 0.004 cal/(s·cm·°C) = 0.062 cal/(s·cm·°C)
