Converting from British Thermal Unit per Minute (BTU/min) to Horsepower, Metric (hp) | Power

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

British Thermal Unit per Minute (BTU/min) is a unit of power that measures the heat energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit in one minute.

What is Horsepower, Metric (hp)

Horsepower, Metric (hp) is a unit of power that is commonly used to measure the output of engines or motors. It is equivalent to the power needed to lift 75 kilograms by one meter in one second.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from BTU/min to hp, you can use the following formulas:

Horsepower, Metric (hp)=BTU/min×0.02390795

BTU/min=Horsepower, Metric (hp)×41.8271

Examples

1. Converting 6 BTU/min to hp:

6 BTU/min=6×0.02390795=0.1434477 hp

6 hp=6×41.8271=250.9626 BTU/min

2. Converting 15 BTU/min to hp:

15 BTU/min=15×0.02390795=0.3586192 hp

15 hp=15×41.8271=627.4065 BTU/min
