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?"
A 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
There 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
The 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.
Normally 12000 BTUs is the equivalent of one ton, a window unit good to accommodate a bedroom 12 ft x 12 ft x 8ft high.
12000 BTU/hr equals 3.5168kW
Looks to me like 30,000 BTU or 2 Tons of cooling @400 CFM per Ton
2200 cfm
the throttle body is rated at 330 cfm
The Boeing 737 NG has 2 engines (CFM International CFM56)
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.
have a AC unit that is rated 5,200 CFM's. What is the conversion to BTU's
12,000
1tr = 400 cfm
1 pa = ? CFM
There are 400 cfm in 1 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?
No. BTUs are heat (British Thermal Units) and cfm is a measure of air flow volume (cubic feet per minute)
10m 7m 7m
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
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.
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.
The general rule of thumb formula indicates a rise of about 32 degrees F.
