Convert Btu (th)/hour to terajoule/second
Please provide values below to convert Btu (th)/hour [Btu(th)/h] to terajoule/second [TJ/s], or Convert terajoule/second to Btu (th)/hour.
1 Btu(th)/h = 2.9288e-13 TJ/s. To convert Btu (th)/hour to terajoule/second, multiply the value by 2.9288e-13; to go the other way, divide by it (1 TJ/s = 3.4144e+12 Btu(th)/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(th)/h = 2.9288e-13 TJ/s
- 1 TJ/s = 3.4144e+12 Btu(th)/h
- 10 Btu(th)/h = 2.9288e-12 TJ/s
- 100 Btu(th)/h = 2.9288e-11 TJ/s
How to Convert Btu (Th)/hour to Terajoule/second
1 Btu(th)/h = 2.928751e-13 TJ/s

Btu (Th)/hour
Btu (th)/hour is a unit of power that measures the rate of energy transfer, specifically the amount of thermal energy in British thermal units (Btu) delivered or consumed per hour.
History/Origin
The Btu (th)/hour originated from the British thermal unit (Btu), a traditional unit of heat energy, and has been used primarily in the heating and energy industries to quantify thermal power rates. Its usage dates back to the early 20th century as a standard measure in thermal energy calculations.
Current Use
Today, Btu (th)/hour is used mainly in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry, as well as in energy consumption and efficiency assessments, to specify thermal power rates of equipment and systems.
Terajoule/second
A terajoule per second (TJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one trillion joules of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The terajoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'tera' indicating a factor of 10^12. It is used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure very high power levels, especially in fields like astrophysics and energy production.
Current Use
TJ/s is used to quantify extremely high power outputs, such as in large-scale energy systems, astrophysical phenomena, and nuclear reactions, where conventional units like watts are insufficient to express the magnitude.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 Btu (th)/hour in terajoule/second?
1 Btu (th)/hour (Btu(th)/h) = 2.9288e-13 terajoule/second (TJ/s).
How do you convert Btu (th)/hour to terajoule/second?
Multiply the Btu (th)/hour value by 2.9288e-13. For example, 25 Btu(th)/h × 2.9288e-13 = 7.3219e-12 TJ/s.
What is 10 Btu (th)/hour in terajoule/second?
10 Btu(th)/h = 2.9288e-12 TJ/s.
Which unit is larger, the Btu (th)/hour or the terajoule/second?
The terajoule/second is the larger unit: 1 Btu(th)/h equals only 2.9288e-13 TJ/s.
