Common Use Cases
- Specifying thermal performance of building insulation using US customary units
- Performing conduction heat transfer calculations in Imperial units for older engineering standards
- Converting material thermal conductivity data between SI and Imperial units for HVAC and building-envelope assessments
Tips & Best Practices
- Ensure consistent unit conditions such as thickness, area, and temperature difference when applying conversions
- Keep in mind this conversion assumes steady-state heat conduction through uniform materials
- Use converted values carefully in precision-sensitive calculations due to minor rounding differences
Limitations
- Assumes steady-state heat transfer in uniform materials
- Specific to thermochemical Btu and requires consistent physical conditions for proper use
- Minor discrepancies might occur in engineering calculations due to unit definition differences and rounding
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does watt per meter per kelvin measure?
- It measures the rate of heat transfer through a material per unit area and temperature gradient across a one-meter thickness, used in thermal conductivity.
- Why convert to Btu (th) inch/second/sq. foot/°F?
- To express thermal conductivity in US customary units for compatibility with HVAC designs, building-envelope calculations, and older engineering standards.
- Are there limitations to this conversion?
- Yes, the conversion assumes steady-state conduction and consistent unit conditions and may have minor precision discrepancies due to unit differences.
