How to convert btus to kilowatt hours (Btu to kWh)
The formula for converting btus to kilowatt hours is: kWh = Btu × 0.00029329722222222. To calculate the btu value in kilowatt hours first substitute the btu value into the preceding formula, and then perform the calculation. If we wanted to calculate 1 btu in kilowatt hours we follow these steps:
kWh = Btu × 0.00029329722222222
kWh = 1 × 0.00029329722222222
kWh = 0.00029329722222222
In other words, 1 btu is equal to 0.00029329722222222 kilowatt hours.
Example Conversion
Let's take a look at an example. The step-by-step process to convert 8 btus to kilowatt hours is:
- Understand the conversion formula: kWh = Btu × 0.00029329722222222
- Substitute the required value. In this case we substitute 8 for Btu so the formula becomes: kWh = 8 × 0.00029329722222222
- Calculate the result using the provided values. In our example the result is: 8 × 0.00029329722222222 = 0.00234637777777776 kWh
In summary, 8 btus is equal to 0.00234637777777776 kilowatt hours.
Converting kilowatt hours to btus
In order to convert the other way around i.e. kilowatt hours to btus, you would use the following formula: Btu = kWh × 3414.4259497. To convert kilowatt hours to btus first substitute the kilowatt hour value into the above formula, and then execute the calculation. If we wanted to calculate 1 kilowatt hour in btus we follow these steps:
Btu = kWh × 3414.4259497
Btu = 1 × 3414.4259497
Btu = 3414.4259497
Or in other words, 1 kilowatt hour is equal to 3414.4259497 btus.
