watt per meter kelvin to Btu (IT) per inch per second per degree Fahrenheit
Please provide values below to convert watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)] to Btu (IT) per inch per second per degree Fahrenheit [Btu/(in·s·°F)], or change ↔.
watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)]
Definition: The SI unit for thermal conductivity, measuring the ability of a material to conduct heat, defined as the amount of heat (in watts) that flows through a meter length of a material for every degree of temperature difference per unit of surface area.
Historyandorigin: The watt per meter kelvin is part of the International System of Units (SI), introduced in the 19th century as a way to standardize heat conductivity measurement.
CurrentUse: Used globally in material science, engineering, and building physics to assess thermal insulation properties of materials.
funfact: Materials like metals tend to have high thermal conductivity, while insulators like rubber have very low values!
Btu (IT) per inch per second per degree Fahrenheit [Btu/(in·s·°F)]
Definition: A unit of thermal conductivity, where one Btu per second per inch measures the heat flow per unit of temperature difference in Fahrenheit.
Historyandorigin: The British thermal unit (Btu) is an imperial unit of energy, commonly used in the U.S. and UK for heat-related measurements.
CurrentUse: Used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, as well as in the energy industry for calculating heat transfer in systems.
funfact: This unit is common in North America, especially in the heating industry!

How to Convert watt per meter kelvin to Btu (IT) per inch per second per degree Fahrenheit
1 watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)] = 0.0014503774 Btu (IT) per inch per second per degree Fahrenheit [Btu/(in·s·°F)]
1 Btu (IT) per inch per second per degree Fahrenheit [Btu/(in·s·°F)] = 689.47572932 watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)]
we use cross multiplication method
watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)] → Btu (IT) per inch per second per degree Fahrenheit [Btu/(in·s·°F)]
1 → 0.0014503774
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.0014503774=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0021755661
