Formula

Formula
kgf·m/s = BTU/min × 1.793096

Multiply any value in British thermal units per minute by 1.793096 to obtain the value in kilograms-force metre per second.

Worked example

Convert 10 BTU/min to kgf·m/s.

  1. 01Start with 10 BTU/min.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 10 × 1.793096 = 17.931 kgf·m/s.
Result10 BTU/min = 17.931 kgf·m/s

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from BTU/min to kgf·m/s?
1 BTU/min equals 1.793096 kgf·m/s. To convert, multiply the value in British thermal units per minute by 1.793096.
How do I convert 1 BTU/min to kgf·m/s?
1 BTU/min = 1.7931 kgf·m/s. For any value, multiply by 1.793096.
How do I convert kgf·m/s back to BTU/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.5576946. So 1 kgf·m/s = 0.557695 BTU/min.
When would I need to convert British thermal unit per minute to kilogram-force metre per second?
Power conversions are common when comparing motor ratings (often kW or hp), thermal duty (BTU/hr or kW), and utility consumption in mixed-unit projects.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
