The BTU, or British Thermal Unit, is a unit of energy, worth about 1055 joules. BTUH is a non-systematic abbreviation standing for British Thermal Units per Hour. You could take a total amount of energy in BTU and divide it by the time over which it is produced (or used) to get BTUH. However, you are not converting one to another as BTU is a measure of energy and BTUH is a measure of power.

How many BTUs will a 100 pound propane tank produce?
A 100 pound propane tank has a capacity of 2,160,509 BTUs
How many BTUs are required to change five pounds of ice at 20 degrees F to steam at 220 degress F?
The question cannot be answered because:the temperature scale being used has not been specified,There is no normal temperature scale in which you can have ice at 32 degrees and steam at 82 degrees without large changes in pressure. If changes in pressure are permitted then there is no simple formula to calculate the amount of heat (btus) required.
How many mcf of natural gas equals the btu of 1 barrel of crude oil?
A fourty two (42) gallon barrel of oil generates approximately 5,600,000 btus. A cubit foor of nat gas generates 1,200 btus ,there for you would need 4,666.67 cubic feet of gas or 4.6 mcf. Today, an mcf of nat gas costs $2.6 an mcf, a barrel of oil $106. The btu per dollar breakdown looks like this. 5,600,000 btus = 1 barrel of crude oil = $106 5.6m btu / $106 = 52,830 btus per dollar 5,600,000 btus = 4.66 mcf = $12.12 5.6m btus / $12.12 = 462,046 btus per dollar
BTU per pound of natural gas?
20141 btus
How many BTUs does it take to heat 390 gallon tank of water from 60 degrees to 248 degrees?
The specific heat of water is 1 BTU per pound per degree Fahrenheit. There are 8.3378 lbs/gallon at 60 degrees, which equals 3251.742 pounds of water. The number of BTUs to raise it 188 degrees is then 611,327.496 BTUs.

How many horse power in tonner split type air condition?
Air conditioning systems aren't measure in horsepower - they're measured either in BTUs or in tons. To determine this, a specific model of AC system would be needed.
How do I determine how many BTUs I need per foot for each room when purchasing portable heaters?
It depends on the climate and how well your home is insulated.A good rule of thumb is about 20 BTUs per square foot.
How do I Convert hvac seer to tonnage?
Determine the SEER rating of the HVAC system. The SEER rating is usually provided by the manufacturer and is a measure of the system's energy efficiency. Find the total cooling capacity of the HVAC system in BTUs (British Thermal Units). This information is also typically provided by the manufacturer and can be found in the system's specifications. Plug the SEER rating and the total cooling capacity in BTUs into the formula: Tonnage = (Total Cooling Capacity in BTUs) / (SEER) For example, if you have an HVAC system with a SEER rating of 16 and a total cooling capacity of 48,000 BTUs: Tonnage = 48,000 BTUs / 16 SEER Tonnage = 3 tons
What is the 500 in btu equals gpm x 500 x temperature rise?
There are 12,000 Btus per ton of cooling. In order to determine tons of cooling, the formula is: Tons = (dT x GPM) / 24 If you would like to know the tons of cooling in Btus, you would multiply this formula by 12,000.. Tons (Btu) = (dT x GPM x 12,000) / 24 Basic arithmetic yields: Tons (Btu) = (dT x GPM x 500) {12,000 / 24 = 500}
Convert CFH to BTU?
To convert CFH to BTU, you need to use the formula 1 CFH which is equivalent to 1000 BTUs.
