The alttype field allows conversion between units of different type, provided each unit is whitelisted to allow the conversion. As at December 2013, the following energy units have alttype = "torque" (the first line consists of different units, while the second line consists of aliases for units in the first line):
{{convert|100|kg|lb}} → 100 kilograms (220 lb) {{convert|100|lb|kg}} → 100 pounds (45 kg) The unit-codes should be treated as case-sensitive: {{convert|100|Mm|mm}} → 100 megametres (1.0 × 10 11 mm) The output of {{convert}} can display multiple converted units, if further unit-codes are specified after the second unnamed parameter ...

The kilogram-force (kgf), also kilopond (kp), is a unit of force (9.806 65 N). [8] The hyl is a unit of mass equal to 1 kgf⋅m −1 ⋅s 2 (9.806 65 kg). The poncelet (p) is a unit of power equal to 1 kgf⋅m⋅s −1 (980.665 W). The technical atmosphere (at) is a (non-coherent) unit of pressure equal to 1 kgf⋅cm −2 (98 066.5 Pa).
For example, the freezing point of water is 0 °C and 32 °F, and a 5 °C change is the same as a 9 °F change. Thus, to convert from units of Fahrenheit to units of Celsius, one subtracts 32 °F (the offset from the point of reference), divides by 9 °F and multiplies by 5 °C (scales by the ratio of units), and adds 0 °C (the offset from the ...
kilogram-kilometre (kg⋅km), moving 1 kg of cargo a distance of 1 km;; tonne-kilometre or kilometre-tonne (t⋅km or km⋅t, also tkm or kmt), the transportation of one tonne over one kilometre; 1 tkm = 1,000 kgkm.
