How to Convert Ergs to BTUs
To convert ergs to British Thermal Units (BTU), multiply the number of ergs by 9.478 x 10-11. This is because 1 BTU is equal to 1055.06 joules, and 1 joule is 10,000,000 ergs.
Formula
BTUs = Ergs × 9.478e-11
or
BTU = erg × 9.478e-11
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in ergs
- Multiply that number by 9.478e-11
- The result is the equivalent energy in BTUs
Examples
- 10,000,000 ergs = 10,000,000 × 9.478e-11 = 0.0009478 BTU
- 100,000,000 ergs = 100,000,000 × 9.478e-11 = 0.009478 BTU
- 1,000,000,000 ergs = 1,000,000,000 × 9.478e-11 = 0.09478 BTU
