joule/kilogram/K to Btu (IT)/pound/°C
Please provide values below to convert joule/kilogram/K [J/(kg*K)] to Btu (IT)/pound/°C, or change ↔.
joule/kilogram/K [J/(kg*K)]
Definition: The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of a substance by 1 Kelvin.
Historyandorigin: The SI unit of specific heat, derived from Joules, named after James Prescott Joule.
CurrentUse: Used in thermodynamics and material science to measure thermal energy storage in materials.
funfact: Water has a high specific heat capacity (4.18 J/g*K), which is why it takes a long time to boil!
Btu (IT)/pound/°C
Definition: Btu per pound per degree Celsius, used in imperial systems for specific heat.
Historyandorigin: Btu in this unit was used before the widespread adoption of the SI system.
CurrentUse: Used in legacy heating systems, especially in the US and the UK.
funfact: Although it’s outdated, Btu per pound per °C was once the go-to unit for energy transfer in homes and factories!

How to Convert joule/kilogram/K to Btu (IT)/pound/°C
1 joule/kilogram/K [J/(kg*K)] = 0.0004299226 Btu (IT)/pound/°C
1 Btu (IT)/pound/°C = 2326.0000002 joule/kilogram/K [J/(kg*K)]
we use cross multiplication method
joule/kilogram/K [J/(kg*K)] → Btu (IT)/pound/°C
1 → 0.0004299226
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.0004299226=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0006448839
