Convert BTU / cubic foot to joule / liter

Learn how to convert 1 BTU / cubic foot to joule / liter step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{B T U}{c u b i c f o o t}) = x (\frac{j o u l e}{l i t e r})

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(\frac{j o u l e}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{B T U}{c u b i c f o o t}) = \frac{1055.05585262}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} (\frac{j o u l e}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{1055.05585262}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} (\frac{J}{m^{3}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{j o u l e}{l i t e r}) = 10^{3} (\frac{j o u l e}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = 10^{3} (\frac{J}{m^{3}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{B T U}{c u b i c f o o t}) = x (\frac{j o u l e}{l i t e r})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{1055.05585262}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} \times (\frac{j o u l e}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x \times 10^{3} \times (\frac{j o u l e}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{1055.05585262}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} \cdot (\frac{J}{m^{3}}) = x \cdot 10^{3} \cdot (\frac{J}{m^{3}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{1055.05585262}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} \cdot (\frac{J}{m^{3}}) = x \times 10^{3} \times (\frac{J}{m^{3}})

Conversion Equation

\frac{1055.05585262}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} = x \times 10^{3}

Switch sides

x \times 10^{3} = \frac{1055.05585262}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{10^{3}})

x \times 10^{3} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{3}} = \frac{1055.05585262}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{3}}

Cancel

x \times 10^{3} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{3}} = \frac{1055.05585262 \times 1.0}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2} \times {10^{3}}^{10}}

Simplify

x = \frac{1055.05585262}{2.8316846592 \times 10.0}

Solve

x

x \approx 37.258945808 \approx 37.2589

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{B T U}{c u b i c f o o t}) \approx 37.2589 (\frac{j o u l e}{l i t e r})
