What is the BTU value of corn?
For our discussion, the two most important factors affecting corn's BTUs is moisture content and test weight. Moisture content subtracts directly from the overall weight of the corn. For example, if you have a pound of corn at 13% moisture, subtract .13 from the pound, which therefore equals .87 pounds of zero percent moisture corn. 13% of a 40-pound bag gives the consumer 34.8 pounds of zero percent moisture corn. Therefore it is evident that moisture is a key component in the amount of BTU's corn delivers. The other variable as we have stated above is test weight. Test weight is the measure of the quality and the number of BTU's per pound. Seed corn, cultivation, and weather determine the test weight per bushel. Higher test weights yield a larger BTU per pound. Typically test weight can range from 50 to 58 pounds per bushel, which corresponds to 7600 to 8500 BTU's per pound of zero percent moisture corn. When taking into consideration moisture and test weight we can fairly estimate the BTU's per pound and bag. The average test weight this year was 57.1 pounds per bushel, which equates to approx. 8,410 BTU's per pound at zero percent moisture. At 13% you have .87 pounds of zero percent moisture corn, which equals 7,316 BTU's per pound, because of the moisture content there is a loss of 1,094 BTU's per pound. Therefore, the total energy per bag would be, 40 pounds at 13% moisture times 7,316 or 292,640 BTU's per bag. When comparing with LP, 3 gallons of LP equals 274,500 BTU's. The average cost of LP has been 1.80 per gallon or 5.40 for three gallons. Therefore a 40-pound bag of corn will yield 18,140 more BTU's than 3 gallons of LP. The exact number of BTUs per pound of corn must take in efficiency of your stove, furnace or boiler.
Is there BTU loss when converting gas to LP?
Converting propane gas to liquid propane is a state change, not a chemical one. Therefore there is no loss of BTU/liter generated when it is burned.

How much does a cake bite heal on RuneScape?
A whole cake in runescape heals 120 LP, and each cake is eaten in 3 bites. That gives you 40 LP per bite.
When converting from natural gas to propane do you have to change out the master control valve on central heat unit?
THE VALVES REGULATOR SPRING NEEDS TO BE CHANGED AS THE DOWNSTREAM PRESSURE CHANGES FROM 3.5" WC TO 11" WC (PROX.) THE ORFICES NEED TO BE CHANGED ALSO AS NATURAL GAS HAS APPROX. 1000 BTU'S PER CUBIC FT. AND LP GAS IS ABOUT 2500 BTU'S, FOR THE SAME CUBIC FT. THE PILOT ORFICE, IF SO EQUIPPED, IS CHANGED OUT TO A SMALLER LP ORFICE ALSO.
How much does the LP 570 4 Superleggera cost?
it has a v-10 engine and it goes 202 miles per hour
Can you use propane in a natural gas dearborn heater?
Yes, if you change the orfice out, the lp orfice is smaller than ng. Orfices sized by BTU's.
Can you use a gas valve from a 64000 btuh lp furnace into a 124000 btuh ng furnace?
That's less than half the btu's required what do you think!
What is the Btu rating of LP gas?
A British Thermal Unit (BTU) is the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree F. This is the standard measurement used to state the amount of energy that a fuel has as well as the amount of output of any heat generating device. You might be able to imagine it this way. Take one gallon (8 pounds) of water and put it on your stove. If the water it 60 degrees F. and you want to bring it to a boil (212 degrees F.) then you will need about 1,200 BTUs to do this. All combustible materials have a BTU rating. For instance, propane has about 15,000 BTUs per pound. Charcoal has about 9,000 BTUs per pound and wood (dry) has about 7,000 BTUs per pound. This gives you an idea of how much fuel you'd need to, say, cook something. When it comes to gas grills they all have a maximum BTU rating per hour. If you see a 35,000 BTU gas grill that means that that grill puts out 35,000 BTUs from all its main burners combined in one hour, or uses a little more than 2 pounds of propane an hour. While the BTU rating on a gas grill doesn't necessarily tell you how much heat it will produce, it does give you an idea and it tells you how much fuel you'll be burning
