Convert joule/kilogram/k to btu (it)/pound/°f

Vice Versa: btu (it)/pound/°f to joule/kilogram/k

Joule/Kilogram/K

The joule per kilogram per kelvin (J/(kg·K)) is the SI unit of specific heat capacity. It represents the amount of energy needed to raise one kilogram of a substance by one kelvin. Water has a specific heat capacity of 4182 J/(kg·K), which is exceptionally high compared to most other common substances.

Btu (IT)/Pound/°F

The British thermal unit per pound per degree Fahrenheit (Btu/(lb·°F)) equals 4186.8 J/(kg·K). Water's specific heat is 1 Btu/(lb·°F), making it a convenient reference unit. It is the standard unit for specific heat capacity in North American mechanical and chemical engineering.
