Explanation
British thermal units and kilojoules are units of energy. They are used in common measurement contexts. Which one you use depends on the unit system or industry. They are defined at different scales, so the factor is not 1: 1 British thermal units = 1.055056 kilojoules, and 1 kilojoules = 0.9478169879 British thermal units. Because one kilojoules represents a smaller amount than one British thermal units, the numeric value gets larger in this direction.
How to convert British thermal units to kilojoules
- Enter the value in British thermal units (BTU).
- Multiply it by 1.055056.
- The result is the equivalent value in kilojoules (kJ).
- Round the result if needed.
Worked example
4698 × 1.055056 = 4956.653088 kilojoules
