Harness the precision of Newtum's Therm to Kilowatt-second Converter, a must-have tool for quick energy unit conversions, sparking your curiosity for seamless calculations.
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 to quantify the energy content of natural gas. The term 'Therm' is derived from the Greek word 'thermos' meaning heat.
Definition of Kilowatt-secondA Kilowatt-second (kW·s) is a unit of energy equivalent to one kilowatt of power expended for one second of time. It represents a quantity of energy produced or consumed in terms of the power level and the time over which that power is sustained. 1 kW·s equals 1,000 joules.
| Therm (th) | Kilowatt-second (kW·s) |
|---|---|
| 0.01 th | 293.071 kW·s |
| 0.1 th | 2930.71 kW·s |
| 0.5 th | 14653.55 kW·s |
| 1 th | 29307.1 kW·s |
| 2 th | 58614.2 kW·s |
| 5 th | 146535.5 kW·s |
| 10 th | 293071 kW·s |
| 20 th | 586142 kW·s |
| 50 th | 1465355 kW·s |
| 100 th | 2930710 kW·s |
1 th = 29,307.1 kW·s
1 kW·s = 0.00003412 th
Example 1:
convert 0.5 th to kW·s:
0.5 th = 0.5 × 29,307.1 kW·s = 14,653.55 kW·s
Example 2:
convert 2 th to kW·s:
2 th = 2 × 29,307.1 kW·s = 58,614.2 kW·s
A brief history of the Therm to Kilowatt-second Converter reveals its origin in the need to bridge two different energy measurement systems: the British thermal unit based system and the metric system. Over time, the converter has become an essential tool for professionals in energy-related fields, facilitating the translation of energy units for various applications, and highlighting the global integration of energy resource management.
Discover the practicality of the Therm to Kilowatt-second Converter as it brings forth real-life applications that extend beyond mere calculations.
Example 1:
Convert 3 therms to kilowatt-seconds:
3 th = 3 × 29,307.1 kW·s = 87,921.3 kW·s
Example 2:
Convert 0.2 therms to kilowatt-seconds:
0.2 th = 0.2 × 29,307.1 kW·s = 5,861.42 kW·s
