What is BTU of gasoline in engine?

BTU is an abbreviation for British Thermal Unit. This represents how much heat or energy is required to increase the temperature of 1 lb of water by 1 degree Fahrenheit. Gasoline, on average, creates between 115,000 and 125,000 BTUs. In contrast, ethanol creates about 75,000 BTUs.


How many btu's would it take to heat 120 gallons of water to 210 degrees f in 2 hours?

To calculate the BTUs required to heat 120 gallons of water to 210°F, first determine the temperature rise needed. Assuming the initial water temperature is around 60°F, you would need to raise it 150°F (210°F - 60°F). The BTU calculation is: [ \text{BTUs} = \text{gallons} \times \text{temperature rise} \times 8.34 ] So, [ \text{BTUs} = 120 \text{ gallons} \times 150°F \times 8.34 \approx 1,500,600 \text{ BTUs}. ] To heat this in 2 hours, you would need about 750,300 BTUs per hour.


What is the temperature rise of 250 cfm of air if an electric heater adds 8500 btus to the air?

Assuming no heat loss, the temperature rise would be approximately 36 degrees Fahrenheit. This calculation is based on the specific heat capacity of air, which is about 0.24 BTU/lb°F. The formula for calculating temperature rise is: Temp Rise = Q / (m * Cp), where Q is the energy added in BTUs, m is the mass flow rate of air in lbs per minute, and Cp is the specific heat capacity of air in BTU/lb°F.

Is it the same BTUs to cool a house as it is to heat a house?

No, the amount of BTUs needed to cool a house is different from heating it. Cooling typically requires fewer BTUs because it involves removing heat from the indoors to maintain a lower temperature, while heating involves adding heat to raise the temperature.


How many btus to heat a city?

The answer depends on the city. Somewhere like Colombo (Sri Lanka) will probably require 0 btus.

What are the BTU contents of 87 unleaded gasoline 87E10 89E10 and Premium 91?

The BTU (British Thermal Unit) content of gasoline can vary slightly based on formulation and additives, but generally, 87 octane unleaded gasoline contains about 114,000 BTUs per gallon. E10 blends (like 87E10 and 89E10, which contain 10% ethanol) typically have a slightly lower BTU content, around 111,000 BTUs per gallon due to the ethanol. Premium gasoline (91 octane) generally has a similar BTU content to regular unleaded, around 113,000 to 114,000 BTUs per gallon.


How many Btus of heat are removed per hour when the water at a flow rate of 10 pounds per minute is cooled 15 degrees Fahrenheit (Water weighs 8.33 pounds per gallon)?

To calculate the BTUs removed per hour, use the formula: BTUs = flow rate (lbs/min) × temperature change (°F) × 1.0 (specific heat of water). First, convert the flow rate to pounds per hour: 10 lbs/min × 60 min/hour = 600 lbs/hour. Then, calculate the BTUs: BTUs = 600 lbs/hour × 15°F × 1.0 = 9,000 BTUs/hour. Thus, 9,000 BTUs of heat are removed per hour.
