Convert British thermal unit to Kilojoule
Unit definitions
British thermal unit
The British thermal unit (Btu) is the amount of thermal energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit.
Kilojoule
$10^{3} \ \text{J}$ is a kilojoule.
How to convert British thermal unit to Kilojoule
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = \text{Energy}_{\text{Btu}} \cdot 1.05506$$
Examples
Example 1
Convert $20.0\ \text{Btu}$ to $\text{kJ}$.
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 20.0 \cdot 1.05506$$
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 21.1012$$
$$\therefore \ 20.0\ \text{Btu} = 21.1012 \ \text{kJ}$$
Example 2
Convert $70.0\ \text{Btu}$ to $\text{kJ}$.
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 70.0 \cdot 1.05506$$
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 73.8542$$
$$\therefore \ 70.0\ \text{Btu} = 73.8542 \ \text{kJ}$$
Example 3
Convert $115.0\ \text{Btu}$ to $\text{kJ}$.
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 115.0 \cdot 1.05506$$
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 121.3319$$
$$\therefore \ 115.0\ \text{Btu} = 121.3319 \ \text{kJ}$$
Example 4
Convert $130.0\ \text{Btu}$ to $\text{kJ}$.
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 130.0 \cdot 1.05506$$
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 137.1578$$
$$\therefore \ 130.0\ \text{Btu} = 137.1578 \ \text{kJ}$$
Example 5
Convert $165.0\ \text{Btu}$ to $\text{kJ}$.
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 165.0 \cdot 1.05506$$
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 174.0849$$
$$\therefore \ 165.0\ \text{Btu} = 174.0849 \ \text{kJ}$$
