There is no set size. The size depends on how many Btu of heat is needed for the burner in the appliance , heater or machine you are running .
No, the orifices are sized different between Natural Gas and Propane as their properties are different. Gas Code book has the proper orifice sizes required for each appliance and their BTU's.
Depends on what the stove fires at.40 btu
A supply house such as johnstone. Take all information of the furnace and old orifice with you and show them what you need.
For the purpose of gas rating 1040 btu's/ft3

Assuming the following typical conditions:natural gas manifold pressure is 3.5" w.c.propane manifold pressure is 10" w.c.natural gas and propane specific gravities are 0.6 and 1.52 relative to airnatural gas and propane energies per cubic foot are 1038 and 2516 BTUyour orifice coefficients are the samethen the propane orifice diameter should be 0.623 times the natural gas orifice diameter.
btu of natural gas to btu of propane
The BTU usage depends on the size generator. What you need to know to figure this out is the fuel type (propane or natural gas) and the size of the generator (usually measured in kilowatts or KW) and the size of the engine. Once you know these things, you can calculate the BTU. The easiest way is to ask the sales person or manufacturer. They can tell you the BTU.
you cannot do this because a natural gas orifice is larger than a propane orifice. you can make a propane jet work for a natural gas jet simply by drilling it approx. 210 % you must buy new jets. usually the company that made you appliance will sell the jet kits for you! HOPE THIS HELPS YOU! GOOD LUCK.
102,000 BTU = 1 ccf
Typically, use 5 * the volume in cubic feet to get BTU/hour for natural gas heaters. For this shop, that works out to 180,000 BTU/hr. Lower ceilings would make a big difference here...
Ther are 1,050 BTU in one cubic foot of natural gas.
