What does kilojoule/minute measure?

Kilojoule per minute measures power as the rate of energy transfer equal to one kilojoule delivered or consumed each minute.

What is MBtu (IT)/hour used for?

MBtu (IT)/hour measures the rate of heat transfer and is commonly used for rating HVAC equipment, industrial heat inputs, and building energy management.

How do I convert from kJ/min to MBtu (IT)/hour?

Multiply the value in kilojoule/minute by 0.000056869 to get the equivalent MBtu (IT)/hour.

What Is This Tool?

This converter helps transform power measurements expressed in kilojoules per minute into MBtu (IT) per hour, facilitating energy transfer comparisons across different scales and industries.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the power value in kilojoule per minute (kJ/min)
Select the units to convert from and to (kilojoule/minute to MBtu (IT)/hour)
Click the convert button to get the equivalent value in MBtu (IT)/hour
Review the output and apply it to your specific use case

Key Features

Converts power units from kilojoule/minute to MBtu (IT)/hour accurately
Supports applications in HVAC, industrial heat transfer, and exercise physiology
Browser-based and easy to use without installation
Provides clear formula and example calculations
Helps interpret small-scale energy rates as well as large-scale heat transfer values

Examples

Convert 10 kilojoule/minute to MBtu (IT)/hour: 10 × 0.000056869 = 0.00056869 MBtu/h
Convert 500 kilojoule/minute to MBtu (IT)/hour: 500 × 0.000056869 = 0.0284345 MBtu/h

Common Use Cases

Reporting metabolic energy expenditure in exercise physiology
Describing heating or cooling rates in laboratory calorimetry
Specifying power ratings for small appliances or processes
Rating HVAC equipment and furnaces for heating capacity
Assessing industrial heat input or steam generation capacity
Expressing building heating loads and energy flow management

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure units are correctly selected to avoid conversion errors
Consider the difference in time bases: kJ/min vs MBtu/h
Use the provided conversion formula for manual calculations
For precise engineering, be aware of heat content standard variations
Apply conversions consistently to maintain reporting clarity

Limitations

Conversion involves different time bases (per minute versus per hour)
MBtu (IT)/hour is a much larger unit, resulting in very small converted values
Heat content standards may vary affecting strict engineering accuracy
