About this conversion
This page converts hectowatts (hW) into btu per hour (BTU/h), two units used to describe power, the rate at which energy is transferred or work is done.
A hectowatt is 100 watt units.
BTU per hour measures power as British thermal units transferred each hour, common for heating and cooling equipment.
The formula is BTU/h = hW × 341.2141633, derived from each unit's fixed relationship to the watt, the SI unit of power.
Because both units are defined by exact numeric relationships to the watt, this conversion is exact rather than approximate.
