Convert Btu (th)/second to hectowatt
Please provide values below to convert Btu (th)/second [Btu(th)/s] to hectowatt [hW], or Convert hectowatt to Btu (th)/second.
1 Btu(th)/s = 10.5435 hW. To convert Btu (th)/second to hectowatt, multiply the value by 10.5435; to go the other way, divide by it (1 hW = 0.0948451652677 Btu(th)/s). 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)/s = 10.5435 hW
- 1 hW = 0.0948451652677 Btu(th)/s
- 10 Btu(th)/s = 105.435 hW

Btu (Th)/second
Btu (th)/second is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer, specifically one British thermal unit (th) per second.
History/Origin
The British thermal unit (th) has been used historically in the United States for measuring heat energy, and its use in power units like Btu (th)/s dates back to traditional energy and heat transfer calculations in engineering and thermodynamics.
Current Use
Btu (th)/second is primarily used in the United States for industrial and engineering applications involving heat transfer rates, although it is less common compared to SI units like watts.
Hectowatt
A hectowatt (hW) is a unit of power equal to 100 watts.
History/Origin
The hectowatt was introduced as part of the metric system to provide larger units of power measurement, though it is rarely used in practice today.
Current Use
The hectowatt is seldom used in modern contexts; power is typically expressed in watts or kilowatts, but it may appear in specific engineering or scientific applications requiring larger units.
