Discover the ease of converting therm to horsepower hours with our efficient Thm to hp·h Converter, powered by Newtum. A must-try tool for quick energy unit conversions!
A therm is a non-SI unit of heat energy. It is defined as exactly 100,000 British thermal units (BTU). It is commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom to measure the energy content of natural gas and other fuels. One therm can be considered the energy equivalent of burning around 100 cubic feet of natural gas.
Definition of Horsepower HourA horsepower hour (hp·h) is a unit of energy commonly used to measure the output of engines and the power of motors. It is equivalent to the work done by a power of one horsepower operating for one hour. Since horsepower is a unit of power representing 746 watts, a horsepower hour translates to 746 watt-hours or 0.746 kilowatt-hours of energy.
| Therm (thm) | Horsepower Hour (hp·h) |
|---|---|
| 0.01 thm | 0.3927 hp·h |
| 0.1 thm | 3.927 hp·h |
| 0.5 thm | 19.635 hp·h |
| 1 thm | 39.27 hp·h |
| 2 thm | 78.54 hp·h |
| 5 thm | 196.35 hp·h |
| 10 thm | 392.7 hp·h |
| 20 thm | 785.4 hp·h |
| 50 thm | 1963.5 hp·h |
| 100 thm | 3927 hp·h |
1 thm = 39.27 hp·h
1 hp·h = 0.02547 thm
Example 1:
Convert 2 thm to hp·h:
2 thm = 2 × 39.27 hp·h = 78.54 hp·h
Example 2:
Convert 0.5 thm to hp·h:
0.5 thm = 0.5 × 39.27 hp·h = 19.635 hp·h
