How to Convert Kilocalorie (th) per Hour per Meter per Degree Celsius to BTU (IT) Inch per Second per Square Foot per Degree Fahrenheit

Conversion Formula

1 kcal/(h·m·°C) = 0.002 Btu·in/(s·ft²·°F)
1 Btu·in/(s·ft²·°F) = 446.748 kcal/(h·m·°C)

Example

Convert 15 kcal/(h·m·°C) to Btu·in/(s·ft²·°F):

15 kcal/(h·m·°C) = 15 × 0.002 Btu·in/(s·ft²·°F) = 0.034 Btu·in/(s·ft²·°F)
