Formula
Formula
BTU/min = J/s × 0.05686903
Multiply any value in joules per second by 0.05686903 to obtain the value in British thermal units per minute.
Worked example
Convert 1000 J/s to BTU/min.
- 01Start with 1000 J/s.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1000 × 0.05686903 = 56.869 BTU/min.
Result1000 J/s = 56.869 BTU/min

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from J/s to BTU/min?
1 J/s equals 0.05686903 BTU/min. To convert, multiply the value in joules per second by 0.05686903.
How do I convert 1 J/s to BTU/min?
1 J/s = 0.056869 BTU/min. For any value, multiply by 0.05686903.
How do I convert BTU/min back to J/s?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 17.58426. So 1 BTU/min = 17.5843 J/s.
When would I need to convert joule per second to British thermal unit per minute?
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).
