How the conversion works
Multiply by 3,412,141.633 to go from megawatt to BTU per hour, or divide by it to go back. Every conversion on this site routes through the SI value (W) rather than a table of pairwise factors, so a round-trip returns exactly what you started with.
Going the other way? BTU per hour to megawatt — 1 BTU/h = 2.930710702e-07 MW.
