  1. 1 kW = 3412.14163313 BTU/h
  2. 1 × 3412.14163313 = 3412.14163313 BTU/h

How to convert kilowatts to btu (it) per hour

1 kW = 3,412.14163313 BTU/h, so multiply by 3,412.14163313 to go from kilowatts to BTU (IT) per hour. Going the other way, 1 BTU/h = 0.000293071070172 kW.

BTU/h = kW × 3,412.14163313
kW = BTU/h × 0.000293071070172

Worked example:

1 kW = 3412.14163313 BTU/h
5 × 3412.14163313 = 17060.7081656 BTU/h
