Privacy First: Your files are processed securely. Whenever possible, processing happens in your browser and files are never stored on our servers.

Convert specific heat capacity (cp) across 11 units: SI (J/(kg·K), kJ/(kg·K), J/(g·K), Wh/(kg·K)), caloric (cal/(g·°C), kcal/(kg·°C)), and Imperial (BTU/(lb·°F), BTU/(lb·°R), ft·lbf/(lb·°F)). Reference: water 4182 J/(kg·K), ice 2090, Al 900, Cu 385, air 1005. 100% browser-based.

How to Use

  1. 1Type a specific heat capacity value (e.g. 4182 for water in J/(kg·K))
  2. 2Select your starting unit (e.g. J/(kg·K), BTU/(lb·°F), cal/(g·°C))
  3. 3Select your target unit - the result appears instantly
  4. 4All conversions appear across SI, Caloric, and Imperial groups
  5. 5Hover any row to copy or use as input; click ⇄ to swap
  6. 6Open 'Material specific heat reference' for common material values
