About these units
The watt per meter kelvin (W/(m·K)) is an SI base or derived unit of thermal conductivity.
The btu per hour foot °f (BTU/(h·ft·°F)) is an imperial unit of thermal conductivity, equal to 1.7307347 watts per meter kelvin.
Going the other way, 1 btu per hour foot °f = 1.7307347 watts per meter kelvin. Thermal conductivity, the k-value, is how readily a material passes heat. Insulation data sheets in North America quote BTU·in/(h·ft²·°F), while European ones use W/(m·K). Lower numbers mean better insulation.
