To calculate the BTU requirement for a load of 560 cubic feet per hour (CFH), you need to consider the type of gas being used. For natural gas, the typical conversion is about 1,000 BTUs per cubic foot, so a 560 CFH load would require approximately 560,000 BTUs per hour. For propane, the conversion is higher, around 2,500 BTUs per cubic foot, resulting in a requirement of about 1,400,000 BTUs per hour. Always consult specific conversion factors for the exact gas in use to ensure accuracy.
Yes, a 60 kVA generator can power a load of 28,000 BTUs, provided it has sufficient capacity. To determine if the generator can handle the load, you need to convert BTUs to watts: 28,000 BTUs is approximately 8,225 watts (using the conversion of 1 BTU/hr = 0.293 watts). Since 60 kVA translates to about 48 kW (assuming a power factor of 0.8), the generator can accommodate the 28,000 BTU load with ample capacity to spare.
About 48,000 BTU You need to have load calculations done. Insulation, windows, location, outside temps, shade conditions, etc. will all affect the answer. For a shop with no windows and very good insulation or in a moderate climate, 48,000 btu may be sufficient. There are heating and cooling load worksheets available on the web if you know the R-value of your insulation and window type.
This conversion is very simple : and is 1 ton = 12,000 BTU/hour.So if you have a 3 ton of refrigeration you have 36,000 BTU/hour.In addition, I want to add that in some large Data Centers, there is a movement from BTU to kW of power used by equipment. This is probably driving the Tons/kW question that the HVAC engineers are telling people cannot be solved.1 Ton of cooling will eliminate 12,000 BTU/hr of heat.12,000 BTU/hr will be produced by 3.516 kW of power used by equipment.1 Ton of cooling will then handle 3.516 kW of equipment load based heat exhaust.
35kW is 119,424.97 BTU/hr
102,000 BTU = 1 ccf
1 BTU needed to raise or lower 1degree F of 1 lb water
Converting BTU (British Thermal Units) to square meters isn't a direct conversion, as they measure different things: BTU is a unit of energy, while square meters measure area. To understand energy needs in relation to area, you typically assess the BTU requirement for heating or cooling a space based on its size. For example, if you know the BTU per square meter requirement for a specific application, you can calculate the area by dividing the total BTUs by the BTUs per square meter.
The number of BTUs required to heat a room over 100 degrees would depend on factors such as the size of the room, insulation, outside temperature, and desired indoor temperature. To calculate the exact BTU requirement, you would typically need to know the specific details of the room and use a heating load calculation formula.
To size a generator for BTUs, first determine the total BTU load of the appliances or systems you plan to power. This involves calculating the BTU ratings of each device and summing them up. Once you have the total BTU load, convert that value to watts (1 BTU/hr is approximately 0.293 watts) to find the required generator capacity. Finally, select a generator with a wattage rating that exceeds your total calculated wattage to ensure reliable operation and account for startup surges.
The BTU output requirements of your furnace must be determined by heat load and heat loss calculations on the area that is heated. You should consult several HVAC contractors for estimates and recommendations.There are many factors that influence the BTU requirements of a furnace in any location.
Divide the heat loss or gain obtained by the load calculation by square footage of the building.
A HVAC contractor would be the best person to ask this question to because they need to run something called a heat load calculation to determine the BTU number for your home.
Determine the Heat Load or Gain for the building in btu or tons and choose an air conditioning system capable of removing the specified amount of heat given in the load calculation.
The question is too vague, It depends on the Tonnage (BTU's) and or the Horsepower of the fan motor.
Wire size is based on the amperage of the connected load. Without that amperage an answer can not be given.
To determine the BTU requirement for a 12 x 12 room with a 12-foot ceiling, you can start with a basic calculation of 20 BTU per square foot. For a 144 square foot room, this equates to approximately 2,880 BTU. However, considering the high ceiling and other factors such as insulation, sun exposure, and occupancy, you may want to increase the capacity to around 3,500 to 4,000 BTU for optimal cooling.
The heating load for a 9,000 BTU heat pump refers to the amount of heat energy required to maintain a desired indoor temperature in a given space, typically measured in British Thermal Units (BTUs). A 9,000 BTU heat pump can effectively heat spaces of approximately 300 to 600 square feet, depending on factors like insulation, ceiling height, and outdoor climate. To determine the exact heating load for a specific area, a Manual J calculation or similar assessment should be performed, considering heat loss and gain in the environment.
