Converting from British Thermal Unit per Minute (BTU/min) to Calorie per Second (cal/s)

What is British Thermal Unit per Minute (BTU/min)

British Thermal Unit per Minute (BTU/min) is a unit of power commonly used in the imperial system to measure the rate of energy transfer or conversion. It represents the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit in one minute.

What is Calorie per Second (cal/s)

Calorie per Second (cal/s) is a unit of power within the metric system that measures the energy conversion rate. It signifies the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius in one second.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between BTU/min and cal/s can be performed using the following formulas:

• To convert from BTU/min to cal/s: cal/s=BTU/min×4.199929

• To convert from cal/s to BTU/min: BTU/min=cal/s×0.2380992

Examples

1. Converting 8 BTU/min to cal/s: 8×4.199929=33.59943 cal/s
2. Converting 13 BTU/min to cal/s: 13×4.199929=54.59908 cal/s
3. Converting 9 cal/s to BTU/min: 9×0.2380992=2.142893 BTU/min
