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

What is Calorie per Second (cal/s)

Calorie per Second (cal/s) is a unit of power that measures the amount of energy transferred or converted in one second. It is commonly used in the field of thermodynamics and is equivalent to 4.184 Joules per second.

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

British Thermal Unit per Minute (BTU/min) is another unit of power that measures the rate of energy transfer. It is often used in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry, representing the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit in one minute.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between Calorie per Second and British Thermal Unit per Minute can be done using the following formulas:

1 (cal/s)=0.2380992(BTU/min)

1 (BTU/min)=4.199929(cal/s)

Examples

• 10 cal/s is equal to 2.380992 BTU/min
• 16 BTU/min is equivalent to 67.19887 cal/s
• 3 cal/s converts to 0.7142977 BTU/min

This article provides a simple reference for converting power units from Calorie per Second to British Thermal Unit per Minute. By using the conversion formulas above, you can easily perform these calculations for various power measurements.
