How to Convert Kilojoules to BTUs
To convert kilojoules to British Thermal Units (BTU), multiply the number of kilojoules by 0.947817. This is because 1 kilojoule is equal to approximately 0.947817 BTUs.
Formula
BTUs = Kilojoules × 0.947817
or
BTU = kJ × 0.947817
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in kilojoules
- Multiply that number by 0.947817
- The result is the equivalent energy in BTUs
Examples
- 10 kilojoules = 10 × 0.947817 = 9.478 BTUs
- 50 kilojoules = 50 × 0.947817 = 47.391 BTUs
- 100 kilojoules = 100 × 0.947817 = 94.782 BTUs
