Watts per meter-kelvin to BTU-inch per hour-ft²-°F

Type a value in W/(m·K) to get it in BTU·in/(h·ft²·°F) instantly.

6.933BTU·in/(h·ft²·°F)

That's about the same as glass. Through a 10 cm slab with 20 °C across it, that carries about 200 W per square meter.

What it means

How fast does heat cross?

Values are at room temperature. Conductivity changes with temperature, moisture and, for insulation, with age.

The math

How to convert W/(m·K) to BTU·in/(h·ft²·°F)

To convert watts per meter-kelvin to BTU-inch per hour-ft²-°F, multiply by 6.93347.

Example: 1 W/(m·K) × 6.93347 = 6.93347 BTU·in/(h·ft²·°F).

In the other direction, 1 BTU·in/(h·ft²·°F) = 0.144228 W/(m·K).
