How many BTUs are there in a gallon of Kerosene?
1 gallon for #1 Kerosene produces 135,000 BTUs. #1 Kerosene is closely related to #1 Diesel and JP8 (Jet Fuel) - they differ chiefly in additives. Likewise, #2 Kerosene, Diesel #2, and Furnace Oil are similar to one another. #2 oils have higher sulfur content, which leads to more eye and lung irritation from the emissions. However, they are also comprised of longer hydrocarbon chains, and therefore weigh more per gallon and also have somewhat higher energy content.
How many gallons of fuel oil equals one cord of fire wood?
175 gallon
How many joules are in one barrel of oil?
The equivalent of about 6,330,000,000 joules or 6 million BTUs
How many btus are required to change one pound of ice at 20 degrees Fahrenheit to steam at 220 degrees Fahrenheit?
1)This is a 5 part question. The first is realizing that 20F to 32F uses .5BTU per pound per degree. That means it takes 32-20=12*.5=6BTUs to get the ice to 32F. 2)Then you need to know the Latent Heat of Fusion for Ice which is 144BTUs (given). Lets assumes the ice changes from ice to water instantaneously at 32F. 3)Next we calculate the BTUs from 32F to 212F. Which is 1BTU per pound per degree F. 212-32=180 so it take 180BTUS. 4)Next we have to use the Latent Heat of Vaporization of water which will say instantaneously converts water to vapor. This takes 970BTUS (given). 5)Then we calculate the BTUS from 212F to 220F. Which is .5BTUs per pound per degree F which is 220-212=8*.5=4BTUs...... Finally add up all the BTUs and you get 6+144+180+970+4=1304BTUs.
Can you put gas in a kerosene plastic container?
Only if it's a coleman lantern designed to run on kerosene (many Canadian models were designed for kerosene). Most Coleman lanterns are designed to run on Coleman fuel or white gasoline, or both. If you try to run kerosene it won't work properly. It will just flame up and not glow brightly like it should. The kerosene Colemans require a preheat step to work properly, they have a preheat cup at the base of the generator that is filled with alcohol and burned before the lantern can be lit.
How many BTUs per gallon of petrol?

How many BTU's per gallon of kerosine?

How many BTU's per gallon of Fuel Oil?
1 gal of #2 fuel oil (or diesel for that matter) has an equivalent of 115,000 BTUS. I say equivalent because it has a little more than that raw (like 136k or so) but the furnace that burns it is only around 85% efficient, therefore you only get 115K BTUS.
How Many BTU's per barrel of crude oil?
Approximately 5,800,000 BTUs per 42-gallon barrel.
How many BTU of energy in one gallon of liquid petroleum gas?
How many Btus if 1 cubic foot of Liquid Petroleum
How many BTUs are in a gallon of propane?
Type your answer here... there are around 91,600 BTUs in a gallon of propane. The standard BBQ sized bottle of propane contains 11 pounds of propane. Propane weighs about 4.2 pounds per gallon, so that 11 pounds of propane is about 2.5 gallons in its liquid state. That means there is 91,600 BTUs/Gal times 2.5 gallons so a BBQ sized tank of propane contains about 2.3 million BTUs. If your BBQ has a 50,000 BTU burner, on high heat, it will last a bit over 4 and half hours of run time.
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.
