Convert Btu (IT)/minute to MBtu (IT)/hour
Please provide values below to convert Btu (IT)/minute [Btu/min] to MBtu (IT)/hour [MBtu/h], or Convert MBtu (IT)/hour to Btu (IT)/minute.
1 Btu/min = 6e-05 MBtu/h. To convert Btu (IT)/minute to MBtu (IT)/hour, multiply the value by 6e-05; to go the other way, divide by it (1 MBtu/h = 16666.6666667 Btu/min). 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/min = 6e-05 MBtu/h
- 1 MBtu/h = 16666.6666667 Btu/min
- 10 Btu/min = 0.0006 MBtu/h
- 100 Btu/min = 0.006 MBtu/h
How to Convert Btu (It)/minute to Mbtu (It)/hour
1 Btu/min = 6e-05 MBtu/h
Example: convert 15 Btu/min to MBtu/h:
15 Btu/min = 15 × 6e-05 MBtu/h = 0.0009 MBtu/h

Btu (It)/minute
Btu (IT)/minute is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer, specifically in British thermal units per minute.
History/Origin
The British thermal unit (Btu) has been used historically in the United States and the UK to measure heat energy. The 'IT' designation refers to the International Table value of the Btu. The unit per minute was adopted to quantify power, which is energy transfer rate, in various engineering and thermodynamic contexts.
Current Use
Btu (IT)/minute is used in engineering, HVAC, and thermodynamics to measure heat transfer rates, especially in systems where energy flow is expressed per unit time. It is part of power conversions within the broader category of common energy and power units.
Mbtu (It)/hour
MBtu/h (Million British thermal units per hour) is a unit of power used to measure the rate of energy transfer or consumption, particularly in heating, cooling, and energy industries.
History/Origin
The MBtu/h unit originated from the British thermal unit (Btu), a traditional unit of heat energy, with the 'Million' prefix indicating a large-scale measurement. It has been used primarily in the United States and industry contexts to quantify energy flow rates in power and energy systems.
Current Use
Today, MBtu/h is used in the energy sector to specify heating and cooling capacities, energy production rates, and power consumption in industrial and commercial applications, especially where large-scale thermal energy transfer is involved.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 Btu (IT)/minute in MBtu (IT)/hour?
1 Btu (IT)/minute (Btu/min) = 6e-05 MBtu (IT)/hour (MBtu/h).
How do you convert Btu (IT)/minute to MBtu (IT)/hour?
Multiply the Btu (IT)/minute value by 6e-05. For example, 25 Btu/min × 6e-05 = 0.0015 MBtu/h.
What is 10 Btu (IT)/minute in MBtu (IT)/hour?
10 Btu/min = 0.0006 MBtu/h.
Which unit is larger, the Btu (IT)/minute or the MBtu (IT)/hour?
The MBtu (IT)/hour is the larger unit: 1 Btu/min equals only 6e-05 MBtu/h.
