About Minute-degree Fahrenheit per BTU

The minute-degree Fahrenheit per BTU (min·°F/BTU) equals (5/9 × 60)/1055.05585262 K/W ≈ 0.03159 K/W. Used in US refrigeration and air-conditioning engineering where capacity is expressed in BTU/min - 1 ton of refrigeration equals 200 BTU/min. Thermal resistance of evaporator and condenser circuits is conveniently quoted in this unit. 1 min·°F/BTU ≈ 0.03159 K/W = 60 s·°F/BTU.

About Microkelvin per watt

The microkelvin per watt (μK/W) equals exactly 10⁻⁶ K/W. Used in ultra-precision cryogenic and nanotechnology research to characterise thermal contact resistance of atomically bonded interfaces, van der Waals heterostructures, and superconducting qubit heat links at millikelvin temperatures. Also quoted for on-chip thermal connections in quantum processor prototypes. 1 μK/W = 10⁻⁶ K/W.
