About this specific heat capacity converter
Convert specific heat capacity units for material properties, heat-transfer calculations, calorimetry, and thermal system design.
Specific heat capacity is based on temperature differences, so Kelvin and Celsius increments are equivalent in these units.
Units covered
Thermal property units
J/g/K, kJ/kg/K, cal/g/°C, BTU/lb/°F, kcal/kg/°C, and MJ/t/°C.
Calorie variants
Includes International Table and thermochemical calorie and BTU variants for legacy data.
Material calculations
Useful for water, metals, air, insulation, process fluids, and lab samples.
How to use it
- Enter the specific heat capacity value.
- Select the source unit and the unit required by your calculation.
- Use the result in heat load, calorimetry, or material comparison work.
