Convert Btu (th)/second to nanowatt
Please provide values below to convert Btu (th)/second [Btu(th)/s] to nanowatt [nW], or Convert nanowatt to Btu (th)/second.
1 Btu(th)/s = 1.0543e+12 nW. To convert Btu (th)/second to nanowatt, multiply the value by 1.0543e+12; to go the other way, divide by it (1 nW = 9.4845e-13 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 = 1.0543e+12 nW
- 1 nW = 9.4845e-13 Btu(th)/s
- 10 Btu(th)/s = 1.0544e+13 nW
- 100 Btu(th)/s = 1.0543e+14 nW
How to Convert Btu (Th)/second to Nanowatt
1 Btu(th)/s = 1054350000000 nW
Example: convert 15 Btu(th)/s to nW:
15 Btu(th)/s = 15 × 1054350000000 nW = 15815250000000 nW

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.
Nanowatt
A nanowatt (nW) is a unit of power equal to one billionth of a watt (10^-9 W).
History/Origin
The nanowatt is derived from the SI unit watt, with the prefix 'nano-' indicating a factor of 10^-9. It has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure very small power levels, especially in electronics and nanotechnology.
Current Use
Nanowatts are used in fields requiring precise measurement of tiny power quantities, such as in sensor technology, low-power electronics, and nanotechnology research.
