    Conversion Factors

    Very handy.  I used it today to convert BTU's into horsepower.



    I also wanted to use it in the kitchen, but couldn't find tablespoons to cups.
    8.33 lbs./gal. x 60 min./hr. x 20°ΔT = 10,000 BTU's/hour

    If you're using IE

    The techies are fixing that. In the meantime, try right-clicking and dragging the rest down. Thanks, Mike.

    What if

    I want to convert bra size to BTU's.  I was taught they are directly proportional, but have no values for proper calculation.  Until now, only empirical data was available.
