British thermal unit to kiloton of TNT converter (btu to kttnt)

Conversion Formula

1 btu = 2.52e-10 kttnt

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 British Thermal Unit = 1.06k joules
   1 Kiloton of TNT = 4.18T joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 btu = (1.06k J) / (4.18T J/kttnt) = 2.52e-10 kttnt
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in btu by 2.52e-10 to get the equivalent in kttnt

Example Conversion

Convert 5 btu to kttnt:

5 btu × 2.52e-10 = 1.26e-9 kttnt
