What Is This Tool?

This unit converter transforms power measurements from pound-foot per hour, a mechanical power unit in imperial foot-pound units, to Btu (th) per hour, a thermal power unit commonly used in heating and cooling applications.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the power value in pound-foot per hour units
  • Select the source unit as pound-foot/hour [lbf*ft/h]
  • Choose the target unit as Btu (th)/hour [Btu (th)/h]
  • Click convert to get the equivalent power value
  • Interpret the result in the context of mechanical versus thermal power

Key Features

  • Converts from pound-foot per hour (lbf*ft/h) to Btu (th)/hour [Btu (th)/h]
  • Supports units relevant for expressing mechanical and thermal power
  • Provides exact conversion using the rate: 1 lbf*ft/h = 0.0012859278 Btu (th)/h
  • Suitable for applications involving HVAC and vintage mechanical equipment
  • Browser-based and easy to use for quick power unit conversions

Examples

  • 100 lbf*ft/h equals 0.12859278 Btu (th)/h
  • 500 lbf*ft/h equals 0.6429639 Btu (th)/h

Common Use Cases

  • Expressing very small mechanical power outputs in legacy imperial units
  • Documenting specifications of vintage or historical mechanical equipment
  • Converting mechanical power rates to thermal power ratings in HVAC systems
  • Estimating heating or cooling loads for buildings and refrigeration capacities
  • Bridging mechanical output metrics with thermal energy transfer rates

Tips & Best Practices

  • Always consider the context since pound-foot/hour and Btu (th)/hour represent different physical quantities
  • Use the conversion tool for steady-state power values rather than transient conditions
  • Verify units carefully when documenting legacy equipment data
  • Confirm results with supplementary methods when high precision is required
  • Be aware that rounding can affect very low values typical in lbf*ft/h

Limitations

  • Pound-foot/hour measures mechanical work rate, while Btu (th)/hour measures thermal energy transfer, so comparisons need proper context
  • Conversion assumes steady-state conditions and does not capture transient fluctuations
  • Rounding errors may occur due to very low values typically encountered in pound-foot/hour units

Frequently Asked Questions

What does one pound-foot per hour represent?
One pound-foot per hour is an imperial power unit representing the rate of mechanical work done, equal to one foot-pound force of work per hour.

Why convert pound-foot/hour to Btu (th)/hour?
This conversion is useful for relating mechanical power in imperial units to thermal power ratings used in heating, cooling, and energy transfer applications.

Can this conversion be used for dynamic power changes?
The conversion assumes steady-state conditions, so it may not accurately represent transient or fluctuating power levels.

Key Terminology

Pound-foot per hour (lbf*ft/h)
An imperial unit of power measuring mechanical work rate as foot-pound force per hour.
Btu (th)/hour
A unit of power measuring the rate of thermal energy transfer based on thermochemical British thermal units per hour.
Steady-state condition
A situation where power values remain constant over time, used as an assumption in this conversion.
