  1. Find the conversion factor from BTU (IT) per hour foot °F to Watt per meter kelvin

    1 BTU/(h·ft·°F) = 1.730734666 W/(m·K)

    factor = 1.730734666 ÷ 1 = 1.730734666 W/(m·K) per BTU/(h·ft·°F)

  2. Multiply by the factor: BTU/(h·ft·°F) cancels, leaving W/(m·K)

    W/(m·K) = BTU/(h·ft·°F) × (W/(m·K) per BTU/(h·ft·°F))

    1 BTU/(h·ft·°F) × 1.730734666 W/(m·K) per BTU/(h·ft·°F) = 1.730734666 W/(m·K)

How it works

1 BTU/(h·ft·°F) = 1.730734666 W/(m·K), so W/(m·K) = BTU/(h·ft·°F) × 1.730734666
