Convert Btu (IT)/hour to milliwatt
Please provide values below to convert Btu (IT)/hour [Btu/h] to milliwatt [mW], or Convert milliwatt to Btu (IT)/hour.
1 Btu/h = 293.07107 mW. To convert Btu (IT)/hour to milliwatt, multiply the value by 293.07107; to go the other way, divide by it (1 mW = 0.00341214163513 Btu/h). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 Btu/h = 293.07107 mW
- 1 mW = 0.00341214163513 Btu/h
- 10 Btu/h = 2930.7107 mW

Btu (It)/hour
Btu (IT)/hour (Btu/h) is a unit of power that measures the rate of energy transfer, specifically the amount of British thermal units (IT) transferred per hour.
History/Origin
The Btu (IT) originated from the British thermal unit used in the United States and was standardized for industrial and engineering purposes. The per-hour notation became common in applications requiring power measurement, especially in heating and cooling systems.
Current Use
Btu/h is widely used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industries to specify the capacity of heating and cooling equipment, as well as in energy analysis and thermodynamics.
Milliwatt
A milliwatt (mW) is a unit of power equal to one thousandth of a watt, used to measure small amounts of power.
History/Origin
The milliwatt was introduced as part of the metric system to provide a convenient unit for measuring low power levels, especially in electronics and telecommunications, with its usage expanding alongside the adoption of the watt as the standard power unit.
Current Use
Milliwatts are commonly used today in electronics, audio equipment, and wireless communication devices to specify power levels, such as in battery-powered devices, LED brightness, and signal transmission power.
