What is kilowatt hour use of roof deicers?

A kilowatt hour is the use of 1000 watts of power in 1 hour. The deicers should have a rating of a voltage such as 110 volts or 220 volts and a current of "X" amps. Multiply the voltage (in volts) times the current (in amps) and you will then know how much "power" in watts the deicer uses. My guess is you will see numbers such as 120 volts at 5 amps. Therefore 120 x 5 = 600 watts per hour or .6 kilowatts per hour.


How do you convert power reading in kWh to kva?

These are two different values. kWh is the amount of kW that are used in an hour. To convert kW to kva use the same formula but leave out the pf (power factor) component.AnswerFirst of all your should realise that power is measured in watts (or kilowatts), not in kilowatt hours! A kilowatt hour is an unit of measurement for energy, or work done, NOT power! So your question doesn't actually make any sense!Furthermore, a kilovolt ampere is the unit of measurement for apparent power, and it should be written as 'kV.A', not 'kva'.So you cannot convert energy in kilowatt hours to apparent power in kilovolt amperes, as we are talking about two completely different quantities! It's like asking "How do you convert miles into kilometres per hour?" That's what I mean by your question not making any sense!The first answer needs correction, as the kilowatt hour is not 'the amount of kilowatts used in one hour'. You do not 'use' kilowatts, as kilowatts is simply a rate. So the correct definition is that a kilowatt hour is the amount of energy used in one hour, at the rate of one kilowatt.

How many kWh will a 2 MW generator produce?

A 2-MW generator will be producing 2000 kW (2 MW) during 1 hour, so 2000 kWh in 1 hour. So, 24 x's 2000 is 48,000 kWh per day. This is assuming it is continuously operating at 100% capacity, 2 MW. Adam Fuller

500 Watts per minute to kilowatts per hour?

To convert watts to kilowatts, you divide by 1,000. Therefore, 500 watts is equal to 0.5 kilowatts. To convert minutes to hours, you divide by 60. So, 500 watts per minute is equivalent to 0.5 kilowatts per 60 minutes, or 0.5/60 = 0.00833 kilowatts per hour.


How much heat would a 5kW heater produce in Btus per hour?

To convert from kilowatts (kW) to British Thermal Units (BTU) per hour, multiply by 3412. Therefore, a 5kW heater would produce 5 * 3412 = 17060 BTU per hour.


How many kilowatts per hour does a flat screen tv use?

None. There is no such thing as a 'kilowatt per hour'. If, on the other hand, you are asking how many 'kilowatt hours' a flatscreen television uses, simply look at its nameplate to find its power rating in kilowatts (more likely, it's in watts, so you need to divide by 1000), and multiply it by 1 to find the number of kilowatt hours consumed over a period of one hour.


How many kilowatts does a revon hair dryer per hours?

No device uses "kilowatts per hour". A watt or kilowatt is a unit of power, not of energy. That means that the "per hour" or "per second" is already implied - the watt refers to a "rate of energy conversion" - not to an amount of energy. If a devices uses a certain amount of kilowatts, it uses this amount all the time while it is on - whether it is kept on for a second or for several days.


How many units per hour utilized by a 45kw motor?

watt (w) means joules per second. kW (kilowatts) means thousands of joules per second. Multiply that by 3600 to get the joules used per hour.

How many volts per hour does a 75 kva transformer produce?

Volts per hour is an invalid statement. You may have meant Watts per Hour.


How do you calculate kilowatts per hour?

A kilowatt hour is calculated by adding the watts together and deviding by 1000, this will give you kilowatts (kW). Then work out how many hours you are using this load for. multiply the kW by the hours and you get kWh. eg 15 lamps at 100w = 1500w/1000 = 1.5 kW. If these were left on for 6 hours then 6 x 1.5 = 9 kWh.AnswerThere is no such thing as a 'kilowatt per hour'. It's rather like saying 'kilometres per hour per hour', because a kilowatt is a special name given to a joule per second -in other words, it measures a rate.

How many kilowatt per hour does a 10kilowatts generate?

There is no such thing as a "kilowatt per hour". Kilowatt is a unit of power, not of energy. A unit of energy is kilowatt-hour. That's kilowatt times hours, not "per" hour ("per" implies division, not multiplication). If a generator produces 10 kilowatts, that means it produces 10 kilowatt-hours every hour.


How many amps for 8000 BTU at 120 volts?

BTU and kilowatt-hours are measures of energy, while power is measured in either kilowatts or BTU per hour. 1 kilowatt-hour is equal to 3412 BTU, or 1 kilowatt equals 3412 BTU/hr. 8000 BTU per hour is equal to 2.344 kilowatts, which is 19.53 amps at 120 v.
