How to Convert BTU/Hour-Foot-°F to Milliwatt/Meter-Kelvin

To convert from BTU/Hour-Foot-°F (BTU/(h·ft·°F)) to Milliwatt/Meter-Kelvin (mW/(m·K)), multiply the value by 1,730.734666.

Formula: mW/(m·K) = BTU/(h·ft·°F) × 1,730.734666

Reverse: BTU/(h·ft·°F) = mW/(m·K) × 0.0005777893

Step-by-Step Example

Start with your value in BTU/Hour-Foot-°F. For example: 5 BTU/(h·ft·°F)
Multiply by the conversion factor: 5 x 1,730.734666
The result is: 8,653.67333 mW/(m·K)

About BTU/Hour-Foot-°F
