What Is This Tool?

This converter helps transform power values measured in pound-foot per hour, an imperial mechanical unit, into Btu (th)/second, which measures thermal power flow. It supports engineers and technicians working across mechanical and thermal energy systems by enabling unit interoperability.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the power value in pound-foot/hour you wish to convert
  • Select pound-foot/hour as the input unit and Btu (th)/second as the output unit
  • Click the convert button to see the equivalent value in Btu (th)/second
  • Use the results to compare mechanical and thermal power rates in your applications

Key Features

  • Converts mechanical power from pound-foot/hour to thermal power in Btu (th)/second
  • Supports legacy imperial units and modern thermal energy measurements
  • Browser-based and easy to use for quick conversions
  • Includes example conversions for clarity
  • Facilitates interdisciplinary energy system assessments

Examples

  • 1000 pound-foot/hour equals approximately 0.0003572 Btu (th)/second
  • 5000 pound-foot/hour equals approximately 0.001786 Btu (th)/second

Common Use Cases

  • Expressing very low mechanical output in legacy imperial measurements for small devices like clocks and gear trains
  • Documenting power ratings of historical or vintage equipment using foot-pound units
  • Converting older imperial ratings of hand-crank or slow winch work rates into SI-compatible terms
  • Analyzing HVAC system capacity in terms of heat transfer rates
  • Specifying performance of boilers and heat exchangers in industrial and building-service sectors
  • Comparing transient heat transfer rates in energy performance testing and simulations

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use this tool to bridge mechanical power data with thermal energy analyses
  • Apply conversions for comparative studies rather than direct energy equivalence
  • Double-check unit selection to ensure correct input and output measures
  • Utilize example values to understand typical conversion scales
  • Keep in mind the small numeric outputs due to low mechanical power rates

Limitations

  • Conversion results produce very small numbers because pound-foot/hour measures very low mechanical power
  • The units reflect different energy domains—mechanical work and thermal power—so direct equivalence is not exact
  • Conversions are mainly useful for interfacing and comparison rather than precise energy equivalence

Frequently Asked Questions

What does pound-foot/hour measure?
Pound-foot/hour is an imperial unit representing mechanical power, specifically the rate of work in foot-pounds done per hour.

Why convert pound-foot/hour to Btu (th)/second?
Conversion allows mechanical power values expressed in legacy units to be compared or integrated with thermal power measurements used in heating and cooling system analysis.

Are the units mechanically and thermally equivalent?
No, pound-foot/hour measures mechanical work rate while Btu (th)/second measures thermal energy flow; conversions enable comparisons but do not imply direct energy equivalence.

Key Terminology

Pound-foot/hour [lbf*ft/h]
An imperial power unit representing one foot-pound of mechanical work done each hour, used for expressing very low mechanical power rates.
Btu (th)/second [Btu (th)/s]
A unit of power indicating the rate of heat transfer equivalent to one thermochemical British thermal unit delivered per second, used in thermal energy measurements.
