A watt is used to measure power, whereas a British Thermal Unit (BTU) is an archaic unit used for measuring energy. As power and energy are two different quantities, you cannot convert a watt into a BTU.
Your question is rather like asking, "How many kilometres per hour' are there in a furlong?"

∙ 11y agoA watt is a measure of power, while btu is a measure of energy. Power is measured in watts or btu per hour. Energy is measured in btu or watt-hours.
100,000 btu (1 Therm) is equal to 29 kilowatt-hours

∙ 7y agoThere is one value that is missing from the question is voltage. One watt is equal to 3.412 BTU's per hour. The equation for Amperage is Watts divided by Volts. A = W/V. Once you have calculated the Wattage of 12000 BTU's per hour, use the wattage value in the amperage equation

∙ 15y agoThe two are related but are not equivalents. 12000 btu = 1 ton of refrigeration , in a typical air conditioning application 400 cfm per ton are needed to properly support it`s operation.

What is the Armstrong air conditioner model number SCU10E30A-2 tonnage?
Looks to me like 30,000 BTU or 2 Tons of cooling @400 CFM per Ton
How many cfm are minimum required for welding in a confined space without respirator protection?
2200 cfm
What is the CFM on a 1991 Chevy 5.7?
the throttle body is rated at 330 cfm
How many engines are there on an Boeing 737NG?
The Boeing 737 NG has 2 engines (CFM International CFM56)
What do CFM in fans?
CFM is a way of saying ft3/min, or cubi feet per minute. It is a measure of the volume of air a fan can move in a minute. Generally speaking, the higher the CFM, the more powerful a fan it is. Or, if you happen to be in the aircraft industry, CFM refers to the company CFM International, a 50-50 joint venture between General Electric of the United States and Snecma in France.
How many cfm equals btu?
have a AC unit that is rated 5,200 CFM's. What is the conversion to BTU's
How many BTU's are in a CFM?
12,000
1tr equals how many cfm?
1tr = 400 cfm
1 pa equals how many CFM?
1 pa = ? CFM
How many cfm of air equals 1 ton of air?
There are 400 cfm in 1 ton
How many cfm's in a ton?
400 cfm per a 1 ton. If you are talking about air condition 400 cfm per a 1 ton. If you are talking about air condition12000 BTU in 1 ton300 - 350 CFM in 1 ton depends on mfg.Cfm and Tonnage of Refrigerent is are different units, then how these two units can be compared?cfm of what? feathers? lead?
How can you convert btu to cfm?
No. BTUs are heat (British Thermal Units) and cfm is a measure of air flow volume (cubic feet per minute)
If L equals 20m w equals 8m h equals 6m then how many cfm required per cubic meter?
10m 7m 7m
70psi equals how many cfm?
CFM is a unit of flow PSI is a unit of pressure you cant equate these except to say that they are inversely proportional... as pressure increases flow decreases
How do you calculatethe cooling coiling of air handling unit?
If you are talking about the forced air furnace that is in the basement or attic you would need to find the amount of air flow from your air handler (CFM) For every 400 CFM you would need about 1 ton of cooling or 12000 BTU For instance my air handler is 1200 CFM therefore i could handle 3 tons easily. This is a rule of thumb but remember that if your air filter is dirty your air flow will be decreased and could cause possible freezing of the cooling coil or evaporator coil.
How do you calculate the tonnage of AHU?
You need 350 to 400 cfm per ton (12,000 btu) of cooling. So, divide your cfm by 400. For example, a 1200 cfm blower on an air handler could handler up to 3 tons. All calculations depend on your duct being the proper size for the equipment.
What is the temp rise of 250 CFM OF AIR IF 8500 btu of heat is added?
The general rule of thumb formula indicates a rise of about 32 degrees F.
