About Kilowatt-hour (thermal)
Kilowatt-hour (thermal) is shown as a thermal-energy label and uses the same joule definition as kWh (3.6 MJ).
About Feet-Pound
The feet-pound is a mechanical work unit common in US torque and ballistics contexts.
How to convert kilowatt-hour (thermal) to feet-pounds
1 kilowatt-hour (thermal) is equal to 2655223.73739815549925 feet-pound when both are expressed in joule-equivalents:
1 kwh_th = (3,600,000 J ÷ 1.3558179483314003 J) ftlb = 2655223.73739815549925 ftlb
Each kilowatt-hour (thermal) is defined as 3,600,000 J and each feet-pound as 1.3558179483314003 J in this tool, so one kwh_th equals 3,600,000 ÷ 1.3558179483314003 ftlb = 2655223.73739815549925 ftlb.
Let d(kwh_th) be the numeric amount in Kilowatt-hour (thermal) (kwh_th), and d(ftlb) the amount in Feet-Pound (ftlb). Then:
d(ftlb) = d(kwh_th) × (3,600,000 / 1.3558179483314003)
Equivalently, divide by how many kwh_th fit into one ftlb (joules per ftlb divided by joules per kwh_th):
d(ftlb) = d(kwh_th) ÷ 3.76616097e-7
Or: feet-pound = kilowatt-hour (thermal) ÷ 3.76616097e-7
Examples
Example #1: Convert 1 kwh_th to feet-pound
1 kwh_th = 1 kwh_th × (3,600,000/1.3558179483314003) ftlb = 2655223.7374 ftlb
1 kwh_th = 1 kwh_th ÷ 3.76616097e-7 = 2655223.7374 ftlb
Example #2: Convert 10 kwh_th to feet-pound
10 kwh_th = 10 kwh_th × (3,600,000/1.3558179483314003) ftlb = 26552237.3740000017 ftlb
10 kwh_th = 10 kwh_th ÷ 3.76616097e-7 = 26552237.3740000017 ftlb
Summary
To convert Kilowatt-hour (thermal) to Feet-Pound, multiply the value in kwh_th by the ratio of joules per kwh_th divided by joules per ftlb. Equivalently: value_ftlb = value_kwh_th × (3600000 / 1.3558179483314003). Numerically, 1 kwh_th equals 2655223.7373981555 ftlb.
Relationship context
You are converting between electrical energy (watt-hours) (Kilowatt-hour (thermal)) and US / imperial engineering units (BTU, therm, ft·lb) (Feet-Pounds). All values are mapped through joules first. The numeric factor is 2.655224e+6.
