1 BTU/h = 2.93071070172 × 10⁻⁷ MW

Show the working
  1. 1 BTU/h = 2.93071070172e-7 MW
  2. 1 × 2.93071070172e-7 = 2.93071070172e-7 MW

How to convert btu (it) per hour to megawatts

1 BTU/h = 2.93071070172 × 10⁻⁷ MW, so multiply by 2.93071070172 to go from BTU (IT) per hour to megawatts. Going the other way, 1 MW = 3,412,141.63313 BTU/h.

MW = BTU/h × 2.93071070172
BTU/h = MW × 3,412,141.63313

Worked example:

1 BTU/h = 2.93071070172e-7 MW
5 × 2.93071070172e-7 = 1.46535535086e-6 MW
