Answer:

A BTU is the amount of heat energy required to raise 1 pound of water by 1 degree Fahrenheit. So a 30,000 BTU burner can heat 30,000 pounds of water by 1 degree Fahrenheit. Any multiple of the amount of water and the temperature rise that yields 30,000 is equivalent.

And 30 000 BTU equal 31 651,68 kilojoules.

Usually it is more meaningful to rate a heating device in BTU/hour.
