Kilojoules per kelvin to BTU per degree Fahrenheit
Type a value in kJ/K to get it in BTU/°F instantly.
5.266BTU/°F
That's 1.41× as much heat capacity as a full kettle, while a person is 25× more. Warming it by 10 °C takes about 0.02778 kWh.
Convert the other way: BTU/°F to kJ/K
What it means
How much heat does it hold?
Examples are water-filled unless stated: water takes 4,184 J to warm a kilogram by one degree. A person is taken as 70 kg.
The math
How to convert kJ/K to BTU/°F
To convert kilojoules per kelvin to BTU per degree Fahrenheit, multiply by 0.526565.
Example: 10 kJ/K × 0.526565 = 5.26565 BTU/°F.
In the other direction, 1 BTU/°F = 1.8991 kJ/K.
