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 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.
What is the difference between btus and joules?
1 BTU is the energy required to heat 1 pound of water by 1 degree F. 1 Joule is defined mechanically, but in thermal terms it is 1/4.2 of a calorie (4.2 Joules/calorie), and 1 calorie is the energy required to heat 1 gram of water by 1 degree C. In fact 1 BTU = 1055 Joules.
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.
If one pound of water is at a temperature of 32 degrees Fahrenheit, how many BTU’s must be removed in order to create a block of ice at 17 degrees?
LATENT HEAT OF FUSION When one pound of ice melts, it absorbs 144 BTUs at a constant temperature of 32°F. If one pound of water is to be frozen into ice, 144 BTUs must be removed from the water at a constant temperature of 32°F.
How is pounds of sulfur dioxide per million BTU of coal calculated?
The sulfur content of coal and its heating values are not constant across all grades of coal. It would require information of type of coal, carbon content, sulfur content and ash content to even start the calculation.
How many btus in a ton lignite coal?
There are approximately 6,700-8,300 BTUs per pound of lignite coal. A ton of lignite coal contains 20-24 million BTUs.
How many btu s eqeal 5000kw?
17 million btus in 5 million watts
How many btu equals mbtu?
One million British thermal units (MBTU) equals 1,000,000 BTUs. The prefix "Mega" in MBTU denotes a factor of one million. Therefore, to convert MBTU to BTUs, you multiply the MBTU value by 1,000,000.
How many BTUs for a 200 sq ft room?
Around a million. plus or minus a few.
How many mmbtus does it take to make 32 million pounds of steam?
To calculate the amount of energy required to produce steam, we need to know the specific enthalpy of water and the temperature/pressure conditions. Generally, it takes about 1,000 BTUs to convert 1 pound of water at 212°F to steam. Therefore, for 32 million pounds of steam, it would require approximately 32 million BTUs, or 32,000 MMBTUs (using the conversion that 1 MMBTU = 1,000,000 BTUs).
How long will a 100 pound tank last on a 15000 btu wall heater?
To estimate how long a 100-pound propane tank will last with a 15,000 BTU wall heater, you first need to know that propane contains about 91,500 BTUs per gallon, and there are approximately 37 gallons in a 100-pound tank. This results in about 8.8 million BTUs total. If the heater runs continuously at 15,000 BTUs, the tank would last roughly 8.8 million BTUs ÷ 15,000 BTUs/hour = about 586 hours. However, actual usage may vary based on heating cycles and efficiency.
How many BTUs does low volatile bituminous coal produce?
Low- and medium-volatility grade bituminous coal typically generates between 26 and 30 million BTUs per ton.
How many Kilowatt Hours are in 1 million BTUs?
1 kWH = 3.6 megajoules of energy and 1 BTU = approximately 1055 joules.1 kWH = 3412.3 BTUSo a million BTUs would be 3.4123 billion BTUs (3.4 x 109 BTU)However, this is not an exact conversion because kWH is energy exerted over time, while BTU is energy content.(see the related question)
How many btu in one ton?
The number of BTUs per cord of wood depends on the type of wood. One cord of cottonwood is equal to 16.1 million BTUs. One cord of hard maple is equal to 23.7 million BTUs, and one cord of red oak wood is equal to 24.4 million BTUs.
How many joules are in one barrel of oil?
The equivalent of about 6,330,000,000 joules or 6 million BTUs
How Many BTU's per barrel of crude oil?
Approximately 5,800,000 BTUs per 42-gallon barrel.
