Convert terajoule/second to Btu (IT)/hour
Please provide values below to convert terajoule/second [TJ/s] to Btu (IT)/hour [Btu/h], or Convert Btu (IT)/hour to terajoule/second.
1 TJ/s = 3.4121e+12 Btu/h. To convert terajoule/second to Btu (IT)/hour, multiply the value by 3.4121e+12; to go the other way, divide by it (1 Btu/h = 2.9307e-13 TJ/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 TJ/s = 3.4121e+12 Btu/h
- 1 Btu/h = 2.9307e-13 TJ/s
- 10 TJ/s = 3.4121e+13 Btu/h
- 100 TJ/s = 3.4121e+14 Btu/h
How to Convert Terajoule/second to Btu (It)/hour
1 TJ/s = 3412141635133.08 Btu/h
Example: convert 15 TJ/s to Btu/h:
15 TJ/s = 15 × 3412141635133.08 Btu/h = 51182124526996.1 Btu/h

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.
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.
