Working Principle

The Watts to BTU Calculator converts electrical power from watts to British Thermal Units per hour. The conversion factor used is 1 watt = 3.412141633 BTU per hour.

When to Use This Calculator

This calculator is useful when you need to convert electrical power ratings from watts to BTU/h, which is common in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) applications, energy efficiency calculations, and appliance specifications.

Example

If an appliance has a power rating of 1500 watts, the calculator will show that it produces 5118.21 BTU per hour (1500 W * 3.412141633 BTU/h).
