- Because these units use different Btu definitions, conversion harmonizes thermal resistance values for accurate modeling and comparison.
- What does the conversion factor 0.9993312315 represent?
- It represents the ratio to convert degree Fahrenheit hour/Btu (IT) values into degree Fahrenheit hour/Btu (th) equivalents.
- Can this conversion be used for transient heat transfer conditions?
- No, this conversion assumes steady-state heat flow and may not be valid for transient or non-standard heat flows.
Key Terminology
- Degree Fahrenheit hour/Btu (IT)
- A U.S. customary thermal resistance unit using the International-Table Btu definition representing steady-state temperature difference per unit heat flow.
- Degree Fahrenheit hour/Btu (th)
- A thermal resistance unit quantifying temperature difference per Btu per hour heat flow, based on the thermochemical Btu definition.
- Thermal Resistance
- A measure of a material's opposition to heat flow, expressed as temperature difference divided by heat flow rate under steady-state conditions.
