Btu (IT) inch/second/sq. foot/°F to watt/meter/K
Please provide values below to convert Btu (IT) inch/second/sq. foot/°F to watt/meter/K [W/(m*K)], or change ↔.
Btu (IT) inch/second/sq. foot/°F
Definition: Measures thermal conductivity using British thermal units (IT) with an inch of material thickness, per second, and per square foot.
Historyandorigin: An imperial-based unit, historically used in North American heating systems.
CurrentUse: Used in HVAC systems, especially in residential and commercial buildings in the US.
funfact: You can find this unit in the specifications of insulation and building materials in the US!
watt/meter/K [W/(m*K)]
Definition: A unit of thermal conductivity that measures how much heat passes through a meter of material when a 1K temperature difference is maintained.
Historyandorigin: The SI unit of thermal conductivity, derived from Joules per second per meter per Kelvin.
CurrentUse: Used in material science, engineering, and building construction to assess heat conduction.
funfact: A material with a high thermal conductivity will feel hot to the touch quickly, like metals!

How to Convert Btu (IT) inch/second/sq. foot/°F to watt/meter/K
1 Btu (IT) inch/second/sq. foot/°F = 519.22039991 watt/meter/K [W/(m*K)]
1 watt/meter/K [W/(m*K)] = 0.0019259644 Btu (IT) inch/second/sq. foot/°F
we use cross multiplication method
Btu (IT) inch/second/sq. foot/°F → watt/meter/K [W/(m*K)]
1 → 519.22039991
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*519.22039991=1*x
by simplifying
x=778.83059987
