How to convert entropy units using the AddUp calculator

How to convert units in general

Conversions can be done either with the "->" conversion operator or with the equivalent "convert" function. The function has three parameters: a quantity, a unit to convert from and a unit to convert to. Likewise the conversion operator uses three values: the quantity and unit to convert from are placed on the left side of the operator while the unit to convert to goes to the right side.

Entropy Units

The basic unit of entropy is the Joule per Kelvin. All units of entropy are expressed in terms of this base unit and so measurements can be converted from any one of the following units to any other.

btuPF: British thermal unit per degree Fahrenheit: 1899.100534716 jpk
clausius: kilocalorie / kelvin: 4186.8 jpk
jpk: Basic unit of entropy (joule per kelvin): 1 jpk

Sample Conversions of Entropy Units

Convert joule per kelvin to BTU per degree Fahrenheit

10 jpk -> btuPF = 0.0052657

convert(10; jpk; btuPF) = 0.0052657

Convert joule per kelvin to clausius

10 jpk -> clausius = 0.0023885

convert(10; jpk; clausius) = 0.0023885

Convert BTU per degree Fahrenheit to joule per kelvin

10 btuPF -> jpk = 18,991.005

convert(10; btuPF; jpk) = 18,991.005

Convert clausius to joules per kelvin

10 clausius -> jpk = 41,868

convert(10; clausius; jpk) = 41,868

Convert clausius to BTU per degree Fahrenheit

10 clausius -> btuPF = 22.046226

convert(10; clausius; btuPF) = 22.046226

Convert BTU per degree Fahrenheit to clausius

10 btuPF -> clausius = 4.5359237

convert(10; btuPF; clausius) = 4.5359237
