1 joule per kilogram-kelvin (J/kg⋅K) is equal to 0.0002390057361 British thermal unit per pound-degree Fahrenheit (Btu/lb⋅°F).
1 J/kg⋅K = 0.0002390057361 Btu/lb⋅°F
or
1 Btu/lb⋅°F = 4184 J/kg⋅K
Formula
To convert a specific heat capacity from joule per kilogram-kelvin (J/kg⋅K) to British thermal unit per pound-degree Fahrenheit (Btu/lb⋅°F), divide the specific heat capacity in joule per kilogram-kelvin by 4184
s(Btu/lb⋅°F) = s(J/kg⋅K) / 4184
Examples:
Convert 50 joule per kilogram-kelvin to British thermal unit per pound-degree Fahrenheit:
s(Btu/lb⋅°F) = 50J/kg⋅K / 4184 = 0.01195028681 Btu/lb⋅°F
