The BTU to KJ Calculator
The BTU to KJ Calculator is used to convert energy measurements from British Thermal Units (BTU) to kilojoules (kJ). This is useful for comparing energy values in different units and for applications in various fields such as energy management and engineering.
Formula:
1 BTU(IT) = 1.05505585262 kJ
The energy E(kJ) in kilojoules is equal to 1.05505585262 times the energy E(BTU) in British Thermal Units (BTU):
E(kJ) = 1.05505585262 × E(BTU)
How to use the BTU to KJ Calculator:
1. Enter the energy value in BTUs into the input box.
2. Click on "Calculate " to convert the entered value to kilojoules.
3. The result will be displayed in a table format.
4. Click on "Clear" to reset the input field.
