heat energy
BTU (British Thermal Unit).
measured in Calories, Btu, Joules, ...
joules Calories, btu's (British thermal units), and degrees. Depends what you're doing.
Heat transfer can be expressed in units of joules (J) or calories (cal). Another common unit for heat transfer is the British thermal unit (BTU) in some regions.
2,500 calories = ~9.914 BTU
Kilocalorie is largest. 1 kilocalorie = 1000 calories = 4,200 Joules = 3.98 BTU
Q = heat = ( 252 cal ) ( 1 Btu / 252 cal ) = 1.00 Btu = 1.00 British Thermal UnitANSWER: 1.00 Btu = 1.00 British Thermal Unit
To convert calories to British Thermal Units (BTU), you can use the conversion factor of 1 calorie = 0.003968 BTU. Simply multiply the number of calories by this conversion factor to get the equivalent amount in BTU.
1 BTU=0.252164401 kilocalories 1 BTU=0.252164401 kilocalories
It is the amount of heat produced by the complete combustion of a unit weight of fuel. Usually expressed in calories per gram or BTU's (British Thermal Units) per pound, the latter being numerically 1.8 times the former.
In a gallon of gasoline, there is approximately 124,884 btu. BTU refers to British thermal unit. It is actually a traditional unit.
